When I try dial out with ppp it dials and starts the handshake and everything, then at the last second when it should connect it doesnt. So I checked the ppp.log file in /var/log and this is the part where Its messing up I think: Chat: Wait for (40): CONNECT -then a few lines later stuff looks good untill it says: Chat: Can't get (40). ---------------------------------- So I decided to try connect manually by typing term from the ppp prompt. This is what happends: I type: atdt It dials and starts talking and everything, then if I hit enter I get like 5 lines of silo overflows. This is what the silo overflow lines look like: Jan 23 23:44:01 myname /kernel: sio0: 1 more silo overflow (total 1) Theres a few lines like that and the total at the end keeps going up untill 3. ------------------------------------- I would appreciate any help at all that I can get. Any info at all that you have please tell me. I am trying to figure out what type of problem this is. My modem is a external 56k modem. And its on com1. So please anyone who has any clues on what type of problem this is please email me. Even if you dont know how to fix the problem could you please tell me what is causing the problem, like is it the modem, or the comport, the irq? Anything, I will be very greatfull.
