There are no disconnections at all.

I recall the solution for ClearOS 5... was to add to the following file: /etc/ppp/ip-up.local

/etc/init.d/snort restart 

/etc/init.d/snortsam restart

I'm on a 60/60Mbit fiber connection trough a bridged fiber interface.

I did this change when I ran CO5, but it did not make any difference then.
I have changed hardware after that and installed CO6.3 64bit.

Can you check /var/log/syswatch to see if you are getting any disconnections. The problem is not restricted to PPPoE interfaces but the solution is not as neat. I run an hourly cron job to check the services are still running and restart them if necessary.

I don't think the system should run out of mem. Got 8GB RAM in the system and 500GB harddrive.. Don't know how big the swap is, if there is one...

GUI states that there is 63% free memory.

I ran the command, did not see any change... What did this do?
I'll give it a few days to see if it makes any difference.

BTW, i'm running CO6.3 x64
