Thanks, I'll give that a look this evening. Currently the modem is doing the
compression I believe, I've not given pppd any instructions regarding
compression so I really can't say if it is doing its thing as well (I can
see where two levels of compression would not be a good thing). The scripts
that are doing the pppd set up have been in use for a long while, as far
back as 2.1 I think, and have not been altered in a while.
I did remove my mtu and mru settings so that the default would be used, from
what little I had time for last night this appeared to help the situation
somewhat but did not completely correct it.
I'll try turning the modem compression off tonight.
