Only a guess ... but perhaps an educated one.
Signal 15, aka SIGTERM, is described, somewhat unhelpfully, as "Termination
Signal" ("man 7 signal"). In context, I suspect that you are getting no
response from the other end to the ppp handshaking request being sent by
pppd, or the modem on the other end is actually disconnecting. I infer this
cause in part from the fact that the SIGTERM is sent exactly 30 seconds
after the Connect: message.
Why? I can think of some reasons why this *might* happen, but knowing
nothing about what you are connecting to limits me to wild guesses.
