dsl4you is a reseller of Alternet, so the quality of their service is the
quality of Alternet (very good so far) limited by the failures of the underlying
EPT infrastructure (that failed last week in Rumelange during two long days).
So, please consider the limited time offer of 29.90 TTC for flat rate ADSL
1Mb/s, including Internet access and DSL connection, available directly from
Alternet.lu.
For the time being, it seems to me that it's the cheapest flat-rate 1Mb/s ADSL
service available about everywhere in Luxembourg. I'm using it since months and
its working very well.
Yours,

The connection is "nailed-up", so I don't think so.
I do have drops of connection with VO (PPPoE light going out on the router), but not really often.

I will try that, but I don't like the solution because it is static.

Hi all,
I remember a discussion here about slow DNS for P&T. I am experiencing
something similar with Visual Online, although I cannot say for sure if
it's their problem or mine.
This is one sample query caught by Ethereal:
Time Source Destination Protocol Info
24.107756 192.168.1.8 192.168.1.1 DNS
Standard query A www.athome.lu
29.115471 192.168.1.8 192.168.1.1 DNS
Standard query A www.athome.lu
34.125519 192.168.1.8 192.168.1.1 DNS
Standard query A www.athome.lu
39.135464 192.168.1.8 192.168.1.1 DNS
Standard query A www.athome.lu
39.165492 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.8 DNS
Standard query response A 80.92.67.138
So it means it took 15 seconds and 3 retransmissions for a DNS query to
get an answer. BTW, 192.168.1.8 is the PC, and 192.168.1.1 is the router
which forwards to VO's DNS.
This behavious is not systematic, but fairly regular (and extremely
annoying). There's 3 candidates:
-1- the PC
here's what resolv.conf says:
nameserver 192.168.1.1
-2- the router
I am unable to find anything in the logs, and I haven't changed anything
on that level except disable the RIP protocol.
-3- the DNS
not sure which one I use, as the router gets this information somehow
from VO - however, I have been unable to find any DNS specific setting
in the router. In the "LAN" tab, it says 0.0.0.0 for both the primary
and the secondary DNS server.
Any clues appreciated.

Hi all,
I am experiencing some strange behaviour with Guarddog 2.3.2 running
with kernel 2.4.26.
Does anybody else use Guarddog in a similar configuration?
If not, are you using any tools to ease the netfilter configuration?

hi there,
does anyone use the new adsl internet service adsl4all.lu? as it is
relatively cheap (29 euros 1Mbit flat), i was wondering if it is a
reliable service.
thanks in advance
Frédéric BECKER
Same price as Alternet, same routers as Alternet, same coverage as Alternet.
If you have a look at their web site, they are "partners" of Alternet. I suspect
they are resellers of Alternet or even a new company name for the distribution
network of Alternet. So, indeed, this offer is the cheapest I know for flat-rate
DSL service in Luxembourg. If it is confirmed as being actually an Alternet
service (as I believe), then it is reliable.
I'll check with Alternet.
