What's on the other side of the link ? What do your logs say ? What
do your config files look like ? How are you starting ppp ? Are the
``connection hangs'' consistent (always when downloading specific
data) ? Is ppp sending & receiving information while the hang
happens ? Is it possible to talk to other machines or is ppp dead
after this happens ? Have you got any ipfw filters ?
