I've been getting dropped from my ISP unexpectedly from time to time and I'm not sure how to go about debugging it. There is nothing unusual in syslog or messages, but I noticed this in ppp.log. (kernel 2.2.12 pppd 2.3p5). Any debugging tips would be greatly appreciated!

Dec 2 23:39:41 Sith pppd[22741]: Exit. Is it just because things are hairy on the ISP end? As soon as I dial back in, everything works fine again (and there is no apparent time interval for which this happens). I know about the lcp-echo options and will play around with them, but I'm hoping someone can tell me whats going on behind the curtain here.
