Im not sure abt dhcpd fixing this, but iirc synaptic has a "download<br>
list" feature that you can feed into wget on another machine (or boot to<br>
a livecd withthis one).<br>
<br>
Are you using Networkmanager? Shouldnt have a lot of ifups and down<br>
necessary.<br>

Two solutions: Read the man pages and docs for wicd and manually configure it to handle your network connectivity, or uninstall it and reinstall NetworkManager.<br><font color="#888888">
