[Icecast] Buffer in IceCast

[Maarten Bezemer]

Hi,

Are you running behind an ADSL line? If so, what type of ADSL connection
(PPPoA, RFC1483 bridged), what type of router, etc.
Also the line quality (noise margin, line speed, rx/tx attenuation) may be
an important issue. If the line is indeed gone for 15-20 seconds, this
indicates a retrain/relogin of your connection. Maybe the logs from your
modem can tell you more about these outages.

I doubt it is the ISP just changing routes, since the last mile to you is
always using the same route, and re-routing anything beyond that point
will have impact on large numbers of customers. Besides, those wouldn't
take 15-20 seconds.

So, good luck with your new homework ;-)

Regards,
 Maarten
