Chris, Looks like your suggestion worked as below. Thanks for the tip. I think this is new behavior for pppd.
I had another problem you might have seen. This weekend, I traveled to a region (north Mississippi) that did not have Verizon EVD0 service although 1xRTT was available. pppd connected, got IPs, but could not pass traffic. THis time I used host <known_site> as a test resulting in "no name servers found." ping to known sites that echo ICMP also did not respond. Default route looked OK. At first I thought it might be something missing from the init string, but then I tried XmBlackBerry and it worked fine using the same chat script (though it was slow. Analogue is painful isn't it). Any ideas? Anything I missed? Thanks Mike Chris Frey wrote: > On Thu, May 22, 2008 at 05:18:33PM -0500, Michael L.
