Ping o' Death is killing pppd on my router.....
That just about somes it up....
If the router sends, receives or carries a ping flood (ping -f or ping -l
65510) pppd dies. I'm unable to hang-up the modem from anything I do in
telnet. (serial ports have no DTR line) After I flash the power on the modem
I can telnet in and "/etc/init.d/ppp start" and everything comes back up.
Have I screwed up, or is something broken?
Brain-Damage.psychosis.com (router):

Root is based mostly on pure Deb scripts, and everything is version Deb
1.2.6 except start-stop-daemon, and busybox emulated commands.
2.0.29 kernel, with Newest IP Masquerade patch.
