I don't mean to be difficult or unhelpful, but if you're running an older version of the firewall it's almost impossible to diagnose something like this. Astaro solved many problems in 5.018, for example. Please update to 5.025 and we'll take it from there.

Your problem is probably not the Astaro software, but a hardware or configuration issue. The best advice I can give you, short of having my hands on your firewall, is to first of all try different hardware and, if that doesn't work for you, look closely at your configuration.
i would say -> the configuration is more than ok. hardware, hmm, i've tested ram and the hdd. everything ok. but some friends of mine are having the same issue. as i said bevore - with v5.17 it's quite ok - so what could be a misconfiguration from your view that above 5.017 versions become unusable for me??
Bce, unfortunately anything I might say beyond this would be nothing more than a wild guess. Look to your hardware and the configuration. There *might* be something in ASL causing this, under certain circumstances.

Please let me know more about the specs of your hardware. What is the make/model of the hard drive, what motherboard are you using, what are the NIC cards, etc.
K7s5a....thats probably your Problem.
I have this board aswell...but as my workstation.
It runs good now but i searched a problem over 2 months.
This board i would never use as a firewall with Astaro i tell you.
I had strange Problems....3com Card did not well in that...worked and suddenly not, independent which pci slot, intel card aswell...then switched to the sis onboard thing...and removed ALL other PCI cards...works.
I changed the Powersupply aswell, have you changed yours for testing purpose ?
It might be that one of the Voltages/Amp's arent stable or not enough.
I read somewhere that you shouldn't use both banks of SDRAM in this board..better only one....but i cant find that article anymore....try the DDR Banks maybe.
also take a close look to the realtek nic.. those nics are pice of crap and cause MANY problems... ive got one in a server box and that systems stops work .ervery day after some hours.
like you said... no traffic in and out .. after a restart everything was ok... so kick also that realtek thing...
