A new Flyspray task has been opened.  Details are below.

Summary - BT Home Hub 5 DSL fails to connect at boot since r4940 (last known working build is r4883)
Task Type - Bug Report
Category - Base system
Status - Unconfirmed
Assigned To - 
Operating System - All
Severity - High
Priority - Very Low
Reported Version - Trunk
Due in Version - Undecided
Due Date - Undecided
Details - The device is BT Home Hub 5
The release is built from SNAPSHOT r4940-00e9a7a

When the router is rebooted DSL fails to sync/connect automatically
If I execute the following commands:

# /etc/init.d/dsl_control stop

and then

# /etc/init.d/dsl_control start 

It finally syncs/connects. PPPOA however takes a long time to come up after that (over one minute, ) whilst with previous firmare releases it used to take only a few seconds.

Something changed between r4883 (the last release I have built which is working fine) and r4940. I have not built thus I do not have the releases in between the two indicated.
