Title: reconnecting to wrong ISP Post by: kwacka on July 28 2010 07:23am I was using Netway but swapped to Wavespeed about 8 months ago. originally no problems, but after a couple of months kept losing connection.
I went to i-choice logon page and each time the (old) Netway box was checked, as I was no longer a subscriber obviously I wasn't logging into Netway. Logging back into Wavespeed got me back online. I found no reason for this, but deleted all network settings on desktops, laptop, netbook, phone, internet radio, reset router to factory settings but problem continued for a few more days, then disappeared. Now, 5 or 6 months on, its back - not as often but twice today I've had to reconnect to Wavespeed (router attempting to connect to Netway). I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 & Debian Lenny on desktops, Ubuntu 9.10 on laptop, Ubuntu Netbook remix, with Windows Mobile on phone, Cyta's Thomson 585v7 is the router. Any suggestions please?

Title: Re: reconnecting to wrong ISP Post by: kwacka on July 31 2010 10:27am Thanks for the post, but I've already tried that (also stopped extensions like Firefox Sync).
I installed Opera for when the connection went down, and it does seem that the DHCP is being released and attempting to take out a new connection with Netway instead of Wavespeed but I don't understand how or why - it doesn't seem to follow the normal length of DHCP lease. But it also hasn't happened since I put my original post up. |
