My problem is that there are disconnections very often..i think the driver
stops communicating with the modem. I tried to put debug=1 in pppoa.c but
verbose level didn't go up.
How can i increase verbosity of the driver ?
-----------------
To handle deconnections i found a "trick" in ppp options i put
lcp-echo-interval 5
lcp-echo-failure 3
So when pppd can not communicate with peer, it terminates (at first i
thought that was what caused disconnections to me, but in fact it's the
modem/driver)
And in ip-down script, which is called when pppd dies i added
killall pppoa2
pppd call adsl
And of course i removed persist in ppp options.
That should handle all disconnections.
