Quite possibly.

/etc/ppp

pap-secrets should look something like this

# Secrets for authentication using PAP
# client        server  secret                  IP addresses
remoteuser   zip     password    *

The important bit is the * - means that account is authorised to connect
on any IP address - important when calling an ISP which uses dynamic IP
address allocation.
