Hi, I am new to Monowall and installed it on one of my pc with the following config, Intel 3.0GHz, 512MB ram and 2 Real NIC cards. Every time I change something in the Nat config or any firewall rules I need to go to WAN interface enable and disable the access to private networks. Then it starts working fine. I am not sure if this is a problem with Realtek NIC cards. I am getting two Intel cards and will test it on the same today.

Which is precisely my point in another thread. Someone was crying "m0n0 bug" since two different hardware platforms freeze after "only" 15 days. If you still have common items (like, for example, same ac socket on the wall), then you're not really playing the "process of elimination" game. I've had clients who complain their servers (not just the firewall) are unstable, only to find out after a visit from me (gasp! the horror!) they have no grounding, reversed polarity, A/C hooked up to the same circuit (sometimes even the SAME POWER OUTLET!), etc. etc. I have dozens of m0n0walls and full-blown servers with RealTek cards and, while I *always* recommend Intel NICs, the RTL8139s that come with the motherboards sometimes have actually done pretty well when hooked up to internet connections, wifi APs, etc. Lee Sharp wrote: > From: "Aaron with Morad" <aaronc at morad dot ab dot ca> > >> "the Realtek cards sucks!" > >> Haha...
