Let's parse it out. See:- http://www.dynalink.co.nz/files/pdfs/lucent_v90_atcom.pdf AT+GCI=7E Set country to NZ S7=60 Connection completion time-out set to 60 seconds I suppose it is possible this is what is causing the problem. I'd be tempted to increase it to 120 S30=0 Inactivity detection disabled \N3 The modem attempts to connect in V.42 error control mode. %C1 Data compression enabled DCS=1,1 I have no Idea what this is it's not in the above document. Remove it? &K3 Enable RTS/CTS (hardware) flow control (default) B0 Selects CCITT V.22 mode when the modem is at 1200 bits/s. B15 Selects V.21 when the modem is at 300 bits/s. B2 Unselects V23 reverse channel (same as B3 ). X4 Result Code Selection and Call Progress Monitoring. ( Enables Result codes and Dial & Busy Tones ) The Bx commands are probably redundant, but harmless. Alan: Also make sure your /etc/ppp/options file has at least got the entries suggested by Ross. i.e. lock debug noauth noipdefault usepeerdns mtu 1456 mru 1456 If that doesn't work I'd suggest trying to connect at a slower speed, but not as slow as 1200, because I suspect the ISP's modem will reject connection attempts that slow. -- CS
