The ISP's machine is disconnecting because it does not like some
configuration option that your PPP is requesting. If my suggestions
don't work, enable ppp kdebug and you'll see what's causing it.

This is not the problem, but it is not necessary unless you are
expecting incoming ppp calls also

try kdebug too if you need more info

Remove these three entries. They are not needed for dynamic IPs and
could confuse ppp. If, for example, ppp followed these rules, it would
ask the peer to agree to a pair of invalid addresses.
