Hola Alejandro:
I use the same applications as you, except for PMPOP and UKA_PPP. In
addition I also use PC-PINE. With some experimentation we might find that
WATTCP.CFG can be tweaked and customised in certain ways so as to better
optimize certain applications. I have been doing some experiments along
these lines. So far I cannot offer any proof that my hypothesis is
correct. I continue to experiment. In order to conduct experiments at
attempting to customise and tweak WATTCP.CFG I need to use PATH.CFG.
BTW, I also have been getting some excellent results with LSPPP. I even
got LSPPP to work just fine on a machine having a "WinModem" type. In the
case of one machine and using a US Robotics 14400 external modem, I was
unable to get LSPPP to work. The same modem works OK with LSPPP on
another machine and the same modem works OK with EPPPD on the machine that
would not work with LSPPP. I think these results are very strange. Has
anyone else been experiencing any interesting unusual results with LSPPP?
