I've had a similar issue with the Nokia mobiles I've been using, the workaround I've used is to put
lcp-echo-interval 4 lcp-echo-failure 2
into the my /etc/ppp/options file.
Yes, this goes as a work around if the remote server supports lcp-echo. It also adds slight delay to the detection of the link going down. But I'd really like to have a proper fix for this. Any suggestions how to do that?
Is my only change to modify ppp_async_input() to detect this 'NO CARRIER' sequence and have it generate a LCP termination packet? Or is there some function that can be called to terminate the PPP link? Would this kind of solution be accepted the official kernel tree?
