Hi folks,

Gentoo_amd64
gnome-light

Frequently on running;

# pppoe-start
... Connected.

# ifconfig
only showing 2 sections
lo        Link encap:Local Loopback
ppp0      Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol

"eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:13:D4:FE:DA:87" disappeared

Internet can't be browsed.  I have to run;

# pppoe-stop

then ran again;
# pppoe-start
at least 4 trials before ISP can be connected.

# ifconfig
this time showing 3 sections
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:13:D4:FE:DA:87
lo        Link encap:Local Loopback
ppp0      Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol

Please advise how to fix this problem.  TIA

Furthermore it comes to my notice that recently browsing Internet is rather 
slow, click -> sit back -> wait, taking a while before another page popup.  The 
PC is connected to 1.5M broadband.

Please advise how to check the problem and fix it.  Tks.

B.R.
