Title: ADSL
Post by: owen chambers on March 24, 2002, 02:40:42 PM

Is there a way to have an option in the web manager to turn an adsl connection on or off just like the isp connection for dial up accounts. my customer has only a 300mb /month account and so wishes to control when the connection is up or down

regards

I think (I'm not sure) ,

In the console type adsl-setup and you have select an on demand connection.

To try.

if the adsl is on the ethernet

ifdown ethx

where x is 0 or 1.

This will down the network interface, therefore stopping any internet traffic.

Crude, but works.

and to bring it back up

ifup ethx
