Hi,

This is the same problem that I (and one other
respondant via private email) are having.

Under 2.4.x kernels, the error count on the
ppp connection keeps increasing which causes
the tranfer rate to be throttled by the 
upstream computer (as I understand it).
This only happens to the masqueraded connections,
not connections from the main box with ppp.

The only solution I have is to drop back to
2.2.x kernels.

PS. Also check your MTU settings for the 
ppp connection and internal network connections.

Cheers,
Mark.
