|Hi, there,

The keyword is ASYNCMAP in the ioctl(). Try playing with the pppd asyncmap
option. asyncmap 0, asyncmap a0000, asyncmap 20a0000 are candidates. If
these all fail then turn on pppd debug messages with the pppd option debug
and look in the log file, usually /var/log/debug, to find what asyncmap the
peer is using for itself. Try using it for your asyncmap option.
|Can someone help me ?? I would really appreciate it.
