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. ________________________________________________________________________ Darren Henderson darren@bmv.state.me.us darren.henderson@state.me.us To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
