what could be the problem with my wifi (i even switched temporarily to linux -- not for this problem -- but i noticed the problem also happens on linux ) ? im connected over wifi.. after a couple days, or a day, or some hours, it seems the wifi connection drops (sites unaccessible, youtube stops)... however i just noticed that the internal LAN works (so wifi must be UP in the internal network). Then,

i open wifimgr and restart the wifi and then wifi works again...

ideas ?

i dont know if the internal network works in linux, but the wifi drops there randomly too

@kevans - thanks so much for that explanation, I appreciate it. I've been enjoying some of those vintage PC repair guys that go through like an old XT or AT-type machine and sort of a brief intro to how the BIOS operates and such, explain memory addressing, DMA, stuff like that.

I only recently learned the IDE was basically an extension of the ISA bus, which finally solved the mystery for me of why ATA/IDE/PATA cabling gone bad could screw a system up in such fatal and erratic ways.

when using pf on a router are the rules evaluated once or once per interface passed? I don't find this in the documentation and the exapmles doesn't make this clear

satanist: pf.conf set state-policy

if-bound States are bound to interface.

floating States can match packets on any interfaces

Last one is the default

thanks

thx dch

Oh joy. I upgraded an NFS server system to 15.1R and hit bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=296233 straight away. Init script not passing rpc_lockd_flags and rpc_statd_flags.

On the surface it looks like it should though. I guess this gives me something to dig into to see why not.
