Hi, I use wvdial to dial into my ISP. There is some problem with my ppp connection. When I dial into my ISP, I am permitted the acces by their RADIUS(as shown in the logs) but after a minute or so, my pppd dies out. I assume this problem is on their (ISP's) side . because any other ISP works just fine. Sometimes I do get connected, and sometimes I dont. I use this ISP because it's the most feasible one, but I cant solve this problem. But when I dial in using windowz, it works just fine and never poses any problems. I just want to know if there is any way I can solve this problem from my side, because I really do want to use this ISP, normally the entries I get in my logs are.... ====== Jul 29 20:57:36 maira-dabba pppd[507]: pppd 2.3.11 started by root, uid 0 Jul 29 20:57:36 maira-dabba pppd[507]: Using interface ppp0 Jul 29 20:57:36 maira-dabba pppd[507]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyS1 Jul 29 20:57:42 maira-dabba pppd[507]: Remote message: Access permitted for user "snauman"^M^J Jul 29 20:57:42 maira-dabba kernel: PPP BSD Compression module registered Jul 29 20:57:42 maira-dabba kernel: PPP BSD Compression module registered Jul 29 20:57:42 maira-dabba kernel: PPP Deflate Compression module registered Jul 29 20:57:42 maira-dabba kernel: PPP Deflate Compression module registered Jul 29 20:58:09 maira-dabba pppd[507]: Hangup (SIGHUP) Jul 29 20:58:09 maira-dabba pppd[507]: Modem hangup Jul 29 20:58:09 maira-dabba pppd[507]: Connection terminated.

After repeated tries it works sometimes but for the last two days, I was unable to connect from linux at all. So please if some one can tell me how to overcome this problem, please do.
