Unfortunately, it had no effect on the problem. The reliable way for me to reproduce this is to call my shell account at the university and try to send a 69k msg, drops every time, here lately. I've always got a 'unknown protocol 0x803f' and show hdlc gives proto:1 but the connection has worked much better in the past. This is into a NT4.0 ISP if that makes a difference. btw, is this version of ppp different than the current version on 3.0? Maybe it is my ISP <?> Tom
