Indeed that was the problem. 'allow-hotplug' instead of 'auto' is the solution! PLEASE correct the WIKI asap!<br><br>Thanks for your prompt support<br><br>Cheers<br><br>Tony<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

</div>I could confirm this.<br>
It doesn't work with "auto usb0" with "allow-hotplug usb0" it works just<br>
fine.<br>
Every time I plug the Freerunner in my debian etch it brings the<br>
interface up.<br>
I use the version from the wiki with a extra freerunner script.<br>
<br>
My entry in /etc/network/interfaces:<br>
<br>
#freerunner<br>
allow-hotplug usb0<br>
<div class="Ih2E3d">iface usb0 inet static<br>
address <a href="http://192.168.0.200" target="_blank">192.168.0.200</a><br>
netmask <a href="http://255.255.255.0" target="_blank">255.255.255.0</a><br>
</div>post-up /etc/network/freerunner start<br>
pre-down /etc/network/freerunner stop<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Someone should correct the wiki, should I?<br>
<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Joe<br>
