Did someone also has a problem with tainted modules?
Symptome:
The FW is working for a while, after a time the ethernet interface seems to be down (checked in the WEB gui) ststus down! If i have at the same time a look on the packetfilter stats i see a lot of dropped packets therefore the intface ist still working .....
If i reload the FW the interface will not come up! i have top wait always a while and it may works after some time =>not predictable.... and this is annoying!
I use a mini itx with a VIA chipset
Hardware:
---------------------------------
Processor
- VIA C3
Chipset
- VIA CN400 North Bridge
- VIA VT8237 South Bridge

notice:
-upgrade to v6 will not work! already testet problem with the VIA chipset :-(
-other HW is not an option
-but all other opinions are welcome
thx
