# Tricky Ethernet
For a long time, I had strange disconnections on the one of my servers.
What's checked:
* Syslog ✓
* Firewall ✓
* Kernel ✓
* Memory ✓
* Router ✓
* ...
* Ethernet socket... disconnected!
Spent about one month to find this reason.
By the way, found lot of bugs sensitive to websocket disconnections:

So my trip was useful at least for one open source project :)
## The conclusion
Ethernet wire and it sockets has limited life time.
If you're old admin, do not forget to check some rusty stuff at first ;)
