Greetings,
	The ppp used to install FreeBSD and the one ran for user PPP
continually dies on me.  During downloads my connection will suddenly be
dropped.  The modem is no longer connected, but the system still thinks it
is.  The only error I have been able to find in the log is an HDLC error
and the FCS is set to FCS:1 or FCS:2
	Any help?
