Rick - Thanks for pointing that out - we do send out that packet (with

Chris - I'm working on some changes for Shannon and I'll add this to
that patch.
Thanks Andy! Does that packet make any difference in your testing?
Is it worth adding it as a small patch so Bill Paul can test, or is your
larger patch nearly ready?
I can be patient... just asking. :-)

Chris,
Since we send that packet when using password I don't see those special
packets. I only had rebooting problems when using the serial modem and
that only happened when I went to this one web site. It would reboot
every time I hit that site. When I got the ip_modem working with a
password I never had any more problems. One time last November I pounded
the hell out of it when my cable service went out during a .com site
stress test. I was connected for over 4 hours and I had multiple
monitors up feeding me data, multiple ssh windows open to web and app
servers I even had a rdesktop session connected to my desktop at work. I
was impressed to say the least with the BB and my service provider.
Anyway back to the patch stuff. Shannon is having a different problem
since moving to FC10. It seems that pppd is not sending the chat script
command to pppob. I also got another bug report for an 8820 that I
wanted to work on before submitting another patch. And you'll be happy
to know that I'm also going to remove the AT command code now that I'm
seeing how other BB are responding.
For Bill's problem, if we move the closing curly bracket from line 318
to line 289 that will send the session_key packet for both password or
non password devices. Below is a simple diff of the change:

unsigned char response_header[] = { 0x00, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,
0, 0, 3, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0xc2, 1, 0 };
memcpy(&response[0], response_header,
sizeof(response_header));

}
- }
// see if the modem will respond to commands
const char modem_command[] = { "AT\r" };
--- 316,321 ----
I hope that's clear enough to understand. :-)
