2 weeks ago, i had my internet service changed from copper DSL to fiber DSL.
now, every time i reboot, internet connection is automatically connecting on boot.
my DSL is delivered as an ethernet connection, there's nothing to connect or disconnect, although I suppose I could use ifconfig eth0 up and ifconfig eth0 down
failed to mention the modem i have is a 2Wire 3800HGV-B.
connections, top down are;
Auxline - Lines 1&2 - Phone Line - Broadband - Local Ether Net 1, 2, 3, 4 - USB-PC - Coaxline - Power
input is via Phone Line, Broadband, or Coaxline. rest are outputs. except for Power. ;-)
instead of using 'ifconfig', i have a network icon in 'system tray'. see my reply to Frank Cox.
