Fw: Internet with Debian & Cayman 3220 router slower than with Windows & 56K modem



It is a real pain  .... there is a program for setting the pppoe connection that shows up in some kde menu, running it leads the OS to discover it has a eth0 (which it already knows) and to nothing else because apparently the interface is already in use by some connection (wonder which one, I have only one ...) ... ifconfig does not help either ...

Why does the OS overwrite the resolv.conf file with the settings it "invented" automatically during the installation instead of accepting my ISP provider IP address for the DNS server?
