Ever since I have upgraded to the 2.2.x kernel on my slink, and bits of potato, system ppp is very flaky over a dialup 56k line. Often I am downloading a package or other large file and the download stalls. I can stop and restart the download and it will continue for a bit longer and the stall again. While the download is stalled if use another net app it is able to make connections and retrieve data, but it too will stall during large downloads. I have upped the debug level on ppp and nothing shows up to my novice ppp packet eyes. This stalling is intermentint as well. Somedays I can download all I want and have no problems. Redialing the connection doesn't seem to help.
Does anybody have any advice? Here are the options I am passing to pppd. noauth connect "/usr/sbin/chat -v -f /etc/chatscripts/me -r /var/log/chat-report.log" /dev/ttyS3 115200 defaultroute noipdefault user servis persist lock holdoff 1 and to chat ABORT BUSY ABORT "NO CARRIER" ABORT VOICE ABORT "NO DIALTONE" ABORT "NO ANSWER" REPORT CONNECT "" ATM0L0S2=255 OK ATDT4968770 CONNECT--CONNECT--CONNECT \d^M username--username--username servis password--password--password <password> anxx--anxx-anxx ppp Thanks, -- Brian --------------------------------------------------------------------- Mechanical Engineering [EMAIL PROTECTED] Purdue University http://www.ecn.purdue.edu/~servis ---------------------------------------------------------------------
