Hello,

I currently have a Powerbook G4 and Airport Extreme Base Station. The base station is connected to a Speedstream modem and my service provider is SBC Yahoo DSL.

I have the base station set to connect via PPoE and I have connect "Using DHCP" selected in the Powerbook's system preferences. I have also downgraded the Base Station firmware to 5.5.1 as I heard that it is more reliable with SBC DSL.

However, I still have a problem where my Base Station loses the internet connection intermittently. This requires me to power cycle the Base Station, after which the connection is restored.

Do you know of any other solutions or why I might be losing my connection so frequently?

Thank you in advance for any help.

Jim
