For broadand access I currently use Virgin mobile broadband prepaid. For
various reason I am trying set up via another ISP/telco, in this case
mcmedia (shepparton) now basicly Bendigo Telco.
Both ISP/telco's use Optus I swapped the sims over in the modem dongle and
the following error occured.....
plog command.....

Now this is exactly what happens when I run out of data with Virgin.
Below is a successfull connection via Virgin.........

From my investigations the config for ppp set up does not need to be
changed. I have been assured Bendigo Telco has there end set up correctly.
In my case the config is hand edit chatscript and ppp/peers
Chatscript

Under advice from a couple of websites the chatscript was change to...

This behave the sameway
It is beginning to appear the sim may be faulty, bendigo telco say the
service should work.
Anyone have any ideas?
