Hello,

I am a newbie LEAF user, and I am afraid that this message might be
somewhat off topic, but...

I have installed the Bering LEAF, and it seems to be working well
except that my PPP connection is slow and unreliable.  I suspect that
this is nothing to do with LEAF, but I do need to diagnose just what is
causing the problem.

It could be my ISP, my phone lines, my modem or my configuration.

A previous linux system, using the same ISP and modem has worked well
in the past, however I had started to suffer from similar problems
before installing LEAF, which is why I decided to try a separate
firewall. My theory was that I was suffering from my own configuration
errors, and that I could isolate the problem by minimising the system.
I no longer have access to my "old" setup, although I did use some
settings from the old setup to help me install PPP in my LEAF.

I would welcome any suggestions about how to debug, isolate and
diagnose the problem.

I am using a 56k serial modem over ordinary phone line. Communication is
slow, and large web pages, or large (usually spam) email messages have
a tendency to time out or lose their socket.

The machine is at home, and I am at work, so requests for log files
etc. will require some time.

Dave
