Sorry I forgot to say that I had run wvdial in both user and root and the screens were the same.

Regarding pap-secrets
All the lines bar that one are commented out, does that make a difference, or should I remove everything except the log in details??

many thanks for that info regarding minicom, I just searched thru google and happened to select that site that I got those from, will delete those and download the correct ones you have suggested thanks.

Regarding the lcp-interval and failure settings I did mention yesterday that they were set at 60 and 6 respectively from an earlier suggestion to up them from their original settings of 30 and 4 ..... I hope that I am referring to the same thing??

This mng after changing the setting back to +pap which as I read was the correct statement(I hope) I ran in both kppp and also wvdial(root) and both timed out error 16 wvdial tried 12 times to send a line of numbers (I showed those in a previous email) and then dropped out and retried.

when in wvdial... how do I stop it from retrying??? is there a command that I can type in?? otherwise it seems to keep on going so I have generally rebooted the computer to stop it.

Regards Alan
