I am using dynamic nameservers from the provider. After the hangup I
could not ping even the gateway.

Well... the problem is not solved but I found another solution which
works. I have two modems on my laptop. The other is a PCMCIA card with
ISDN (this is the part that does not work correctly). I guess the the
ISDN is implemented in the hardware so that linux sees the ISDN line as
a normal modem. The other modem is a Winmodem. If I connect through it
everything seems to work fine (so far). I don't know what the problem is
but as long as I get the transfers working someway I'm happy.

Thank you for the reply.
