I wouldn't bet on that being the reason. However...

You need to edit /etc/modules.conf (or conf.modules, whichever your
system uses) to include the lines:
alias ppp-compress-21 bsd_comp
alias ppp-compress-24 ppp_deflate
That is, if you want to be able to use either of those types of
compression. There's a bit of a patent issue about ppp_deflate (the same
as there is for GIF files), so you may choose not to use that. Or you
may not...
I'm not sure what the module for ppp-compress-26 is supposed to be
(predictor-1?), but I don't appear to be able to find it. And since it
all works fine without it, I can't be bothered to try.
However, you could equally well turn off all ppp compression in the pppd
options or peer file ("nodeflate", "nobsdcomp", "nopredictor1").

I suspect we'll need to have a look at some debugging output (kdebug and
debug options) before being able to pin down exactly what your problem
is. I could be wrong, though. Someone might well recognise your problem
from the information you already gave... we'll see.
