Hi Luvers I have a pc with 3 nics eth0, eth1 and wlan0 running Debian 8. eth0 is on board nic eth1 is a usb ethernet adapter wlan0 is a wifi usb dongle wlan0 is the connection to the external world. (192.168.1.17) eth0 and eth1 only connects to local devices (192.168.0.11 and .12 respectively) The system is configured to be accessed over ssh via wlan0, which works fine for a while. However after a while (usually 24+ hrs), a default route via eth0 will appear in the routing table with a lower metric value than wlan0, and it cannot be accessed via wlan0 anymore. If I delete it, everythig will be ok, but it will appear again later. How do I stop this from happening? (and why is this happening in the first place)? Thanks in advance.
