Csaba,
In ARACHNE.CFG try changing "IP_Address PPP" to "IP_Address %MYIP%". When I
installed 1.60b1, I, too, failed to connect although I was using the same
computer and ISP that I had been using all along. Just making this one
change resulted in connecting immediately.
Hope this helps.

The situation is the same. Moreover I tried my old external modem (14.4k).
I got the same result.

Yes, I get a short message (my IP address, mru=1500...etc.).
And when the "exotic characters" receive, I press <F7>.

Yes, I get it. Moreover I see some modem-activity (RD and SD leds),
but after 20 secs the line is cut off, and the ppp_err.ah appears.
Kind regards,
