Hi John,

I suggested to the other guy to modify the chat script so that it simply looks for the 
"CONNECT", and then exits normally.  This should dump you right in to PPP, and 
hopefully it will authenticate you.  

You might need the pap-secrets or the chap-secrets file residing in your /etc/ppp so 
that PPP knows what to send - do you have one of these files with your username and 
password?

Try this script and let me know what happens:

ABORT "NO CARRIER"
ABORT "NO DIALTONE"
ABORT "ERROR"
ABORT "NO ANSWER"
ABORT "BUSY"
"" "at"
OK "atz"
OK "atdt5551234"   <-- Put your ISP's telephone number here
"CONNECT" ""

Bob
