What's missing in the LCP negotiations is a request from the ISP for some
type of authentication. Are you using chat to do login/passwd entries?
If so then the ISP may now require that you connect and start PPP
negotiations immediately without the login/password, and use PAP or CHAP
authentication. What you are getting with a login/passwd may be a
legacy PPP implementation for login/password that no longer functions
correctly.

The peer requests VJ compression with the 00 option while pppd asks for VJ
compression with the 01 option. This has sometimes been a sign that the
peer VJ implementation is broken. The answer to such a problem is the pppd
"novj" option.

|Thanks,
Of the two suggestions above, I'd guess that you need to remove chat
expect-sends that do login/password and configure for PAP and CHAP.
Configuring for PAP and CHAP is done by using the pppd option "user
<YourISPusername>" and inserting the line
YourISPusername * YourISPpassword
in both /etc/ppp/{pap,chap}-secrets files, with the obvious substitutions.
