Nothing out of the ordinary happens at all in dmesg. I'm running both modem_run and pppoa at verbose level 2.
/var/log/messages shows this around the time of the connection being dropped: Aug 20 12:21:29 funkee pppoa3[375]: write_dest: 1 ENOBUFS errors Aug 20 12:21:29 funkee pppoa3[375]: write_dest: 2 ENOBUFS errors Aug 20 12:21:29 funkee pppoa3[375]: write_dest: 3 ENOBUFS errors Aug 20 12:21:29 funkee pppoa3[375]: write_dest: 4 ENOBUFS errors Aug 20 12:22:34 funkee pppoa3[375]: write_dest: 5 ENOBUFS errors Aug 20 12:22:34 funkee pppoa3[375]: write_dest: 6 ENOBUFS errors Aug 20 12:22:41 funkee pppoa3[375]: write_dest: 7 ENOBUFS errors Aug 20 12:22:47 funkee pppoa3[375]: write_dest: 8 ENOBUFS errors Aug 20 12:22:47 funkee pppoa3[375]: write_dest: 9 ENOBUFS errors And some noteworthy happenings in /var/log/ppp.log (upon startup and not when the connection is dropped): Aug 20 13:24:18 funkee ppp[371]: tun0: Phase: Unknown protocol 0x0077 (unrecognised protocol) Aug 20 13:24:18 funkee ppp[371]: tun0: Warning: ipv4_Input: IPCP not open - packet dropped Aug 20 13:24:24 funkee ppp[371]: tun0: Phase: deflink: IPV6CP protocol reject closes IPV6CP !

Like I said, I would be grateful to see someones FreeBSD setup, just to double check i've done everything right.
