Add the following in your /etc/ppp/options for a start:
========
ipcp-accept-remote
ipcp-accept-local
========
These make sure that ppp and the remote accept what they see as 'gospel'
You should also probably add 'noauth' and 'defaultroute' as well and set
a timeout vakue such as 'idle 300' where the value 300 is in seconds.
The other bit for NZ lines is set your modem initialisation string up.
The three ISPs I use all seem to work best with the following:
'ATZ&D2&C1&K0&M0#CLS0'
Check with your particular modem documentation to see it all are valid.
Cheers
John
