1801 DSL Interface Problem

rasoftware

Hi,

I put in place a cisco 1801 with Ethernet and DSL interface yesterday. Ethernet WAN works great. I have a situation where the dsl is dropping packets periodically. The line is hardly used and pings are around 80-100ms then it drops two or more pings then comes back. I tried to router supplier by the ISP and all works perfectly. Does this sound like a hardware issue?

I get this on logging

*Apr 21 10:56:20.972: %LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface Virtual-Access2, changed state to down

*Apr 21 10:56:22.024: %LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface ATM0, changed state to down

*Apr 21 10:57:34.564: %LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface ATM0, changed state to up

*Apr 21 10:57:36.896: %LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface Virtual-Access2, changed state to up

It could be an intermittent network problem. If the problem persists, collect debug messages for analysing teh actual problem.

i have the same issue with my 1801 and my ISP (BT broadband MAX DSL 8mb) thing is i was getting this before i upped to 8mb dsl. same issue where the ATM0 int goes down, put in the provided router and hand off via ethernet and all is well. parts of my config below (with user/pass removed)

any help you can shed would be great

I have had this with a number of router when i have dsl operating-mode auto set as "auto". On two occassion are IOS upgrade fixed it. I also had a situation with a 72 port lucent DSLAM where it wouldnt work relabilty with "auto" selected. Even with cisco specific firmware this was not relibale.

whats version are you using?

im currently on ios 12.4(9)T i upgraded last week to try and solve this issue, although i changed my dsl-operating-mode to itu-dmt and its currently staying up also reanabled enable-training-log

however in this config i was only seeing 2mb down, forced to ansi-dmt mode and im getting 4mb - 6mb down which is normall for my 8mb dsl.

time to see what happens.
