According to the manual page neither '+pap' nor 'pap' are legal options.
the manual page documents these extended pap options:-
papcrypt
pap-max-authreq n
pap-restart n
pap-timeout n
Please see the output from the 'man pppd' command or the web page:-
http://www.die.net/doc/linux/man/man8/pppd.8.html
suggested by Nick for the full details.
I would use the options documented in the manual page rather than the examples
in the /etc/ppp/options file.

So would I. imho, there is probably a bug in the secret driver part of the

Excellent!!!
Make absolutely sure you get a real one, as opposed to a
WinModem fake. Otherwise we will be into another round of this kind of
nonsense.
