Putting the DSL service name in that field caused a problem on my D-link router. Check your MTU setting in the router and make sure it is no higher than 1492. Finally, you may have a router that is overheating or defective. Good luck. I am not familiar with SMC routers. I have worked with D-link and Linksys.

I can see in the log me signing in every 3 seconds. It wont hald a stable PPPoE connection In that case I really can't think of anything other than possible the DSL signal is being interrupted or the router is defective. Did you have a basic DSL modem before the router or is this a new install and you're using the router over the ISP modem? I never installed a SMC router before so I don't know about its settings. -- Team Helix Member since 01.01.02

port9 join:2006-07-15 Cordova, TN	reply to port9 I think the problem is either the router is defective or the service name in the Discovery stage. or something else incredibly weird. I'm gonna have to ask out engineer that the service name is and try to match it up. see if that helps.
