Hello,
I am also a newbie to FreeBSD, and have also had problems connecting to an ISP. While I can actually make the connection, I cannot yet complete a logon successfully ;(. But I may have some insight as to your problem. Having looked at your ppp.log, it appears that your system is never actually dialing the number to connect. These lines explain it: Sep 8 22:25:12 ppp[221]: tun0: Chat: Phone: 5571090 This line is your ppp being informed of the phone number. Sep 8 22:25:12 ppp[221]: tun0: Chat: deflink: Dial attempt 1 of 1 Sep 8 22:25:12 ppp[221]: tun0: Chat: Send: AT^M This line is the modem being sent an attention signal. Sep 8 22:25:12 ppp[221]: tun0: Chat: Expect(5): OK This line tells that ppp is expecting the modem to responds with an OK - the standard response to an attention signal, and that it expects the response in 5 seconds (this is due to your "set dial" command in /etc/ppp/ppp.conf.) Sep 8 22:25:17 ppp[221]: tun0: Chat: Expect timeout Here, (5 seconds later), the system has not gotten the expected response, so it times out and tries again. Sep 8 22:25:17 ppp[221]: tun0: Chat: Send: AT^M Sep 8 22:25:17 ppp[221]: tun0: Chat: Expect(5): OK Sep 8 22:25:22 ppp[221]: tun0: Chat: Expect timeout Sep 8 22:25:22 ppp[221]: tun0: Warning: Chat script failed The same thing has happened again - and the connection fails. Sep 8 22:25:22 ppp[221]: tun0: Phase: deflink: dial -> hangup Your problems are indicative of a configuration problem or possible a modem hardware problem. Do you ever actually hear the modem pick up the phone (do you get a dial tone)? Can you post a copy of your ppp.conf file? _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
