That top line there is your problem.

What does /etc/ppp/chap-secrets look like?

Should be something like this

# Secrets for authentication using CHAP
# client        server  secret                  IP addresses
myname   ppp0    mypassword    *

The * at the end is the important bit - authorises the remote host to use
_any_ IP address.

You could modify it to be 144.130.* and see if that works. Assuming they
allocate you the same subnet all the time.
