Hi Everyone,

I have looked just about everywhere, and can't find a solution to my 
problem. I have PPP running, quite allright, except that I loose 
about 50% of the packets. I have an external ISDN modem, "USR 
Sportster ISDN TA, ext" and I use diald to establish the 
connection. (So it may be a diald problem, but I don't think so). If I 
connect my routing table seems allright. (listed below). But when I 
do a ping to a host (even the host I'm connected to) I get every 
second packet back (and sometimes even less than that).

I have static IPs, local and remote.
I have all the compression disabled, because I don't know what 
compression my ISP uses. But I also tried some combinations of 
allowing some of them, none of which helped.

my options-file is 
novj
novjccomp
nobsdcomp
nodeflate
nopcomp

lock
mru 1500
mtu 1500
# tried this on or off which didn't do anything.
#crtscts
debug
-detach
asyncmap 0

I would really appreciate any ideas. Maybe you just tell me to bin 
my isdn modem.

Thanks in advance,

Michiel 


Routes after PPP has come up (weird thing is the three default 
routes, but even if I delete two of them after the link is up, the 
problem persists)
