    Hi Geo .
    
        Thanx for the advice but it's still crashing. I even changed the web
    port to 81 , they say it's helping
    but it did not help me . My Cbos still looses the ppp conection :
    
    25 000:00:42:48 PPP        Info       PPP Termination Acknowledgement on
    wan0-0
    26 000:00:42:48 PPP        Info       PPP Down Event on wan0-0
    
    Any ideea where this is comming from ?
