Unstable Network Connection - abhishek77 - 2007-12-18
I am facing some problems with the modem.
The ethernet controller details are Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168B PCI E xpress Gigabit Ethernet controller (rev 01).
The connection is very unstable when running on fedora. It is a webstar modem and has been used since past 6 years and so has the ethernet cable.
But on windows i do not have any problems with an unstable connection.
Could anyone tell me how to fix this problem so that the connection stays stable?
Do i need a new modem and ethernet or usb cable?
Any suggestions which modems are linux plug and play?

I also forgot to mention that when i start up the system, it detects the eth0 cable and status is Ok.
Now after logging in, i access the network configration and it says that connection is activated.
Now even after this i am unable to access the internet.
The data light on the webstar modem does not flash. do i need a new one.
Last night i could not access the internet but in the morning, when i went back to the pc, a connection was present. After shutting down and restarting, connection not present.
