Hi Tom, You might be right, but I don't get why my existing downloads (I guess they are on different routes) are not affected. If my ADLS provider is doing some IP adjustments (btw my IP is static) I expect everything to disconnect, not only my icecast connection. So I'll monitor my USRobotics logs today and tomorrow so see if there is something strange.

My personal thinking is, that your ADSL Provider disconnects you once or twice a day to unload the DSLAM port and sometimes, if you do not have a fixed IP address, you even get a new IP address. This disconnect takes a bit long to synchronize in your case. Have you checked that? Look into the logfile of your modem/router. If so, then force your modem or router to do this disconnect at a fixed time in the middle of the night. Which equipment are you using?

Hi Dick, I've already tried similar ping, traceroute tests, but couldn't find anything. Karl recommended me some config parametres but they didn't worked for me, so I'll run my server & client on the same host. It is the only working path for me.
