Hi Pavlo,

If you haven't had a response to this message, here's my interpretation:

Cause 16 is normal call clearing (it also says so in the message), so basically your ISP is hanging up on you. That normally happens when your authentication is flaky ie. you've used the wrong PAP
and/or CHAP password.
Check your authentication settings and make sure that you've got usernames and passwords correct.
For the kernel ppp driver, see man ispppcontrol and for the userland ppp daemon, check your config file.

Hope that helps,

Gerald
