The other end is sending a ``code 5'' packet - something that doesn't appear in the spec :( ppp(8) just ignores these (emitting a warning), they shouldn't be causing any problems themselves (even if CBCP is actually being used). Try enabling IPCP logging. You may be having a problem at that level, or alternatively, perhaps the peer thinks you've already got a connection and is (rudely) dropping the connection because of that. > Hi, > > I'm having strange problems with one of local dial-up providers: without > any visible reasons from time to time I can't establish PPP connection > during 20-30 minutes.
