Hi all. For no apparent reason when I type 'ppp -ddial xtra' the modem clicks on, starts dialing, disconnects for some reason, clicks off, starts the process again. It does this about 3-4 times before it connects if it even connects at all. I have tried to figure this one out myself, I've scanned the ppp log which made no sense to me (the only error I saw was 'No response from server'). What commands can I use to diagnose this? What does this problem sound like? Connection: 56kbps dialup, dynamic IPs, XTRA NZ. I can post my ppp.conf if you think it's needed. Cheers, Ben.
