PPP finally decided to log an error message. "Modem does not support CD." I assume that means Carrier Detect isn't working and PPP has been trying to set up the session with lqr. This would have been a good thing to know several weeks ago. I would not have asked for help with a simple hardware problem. Buying another modem is not on my list of solutions but I am going to check the cable, a Belkin Gold DB9 DTE -> DB25 DCE. I do recall there are/were some problems with DB9 -> DB25 and not enough pins for everything to work according to standard but, of course, it has worked flawlessly for years with Windows. I may just wait until I get a ADSL and try PPPoE. That will be fun.
