After several minutes of not doing anything, the modem hands up. I tried adjusting the s10 register, and that didn't change anything. Does userPPP have an inactivity timeout? Is there a low-overhead way to keep the like active? or, will I have to bring this up with my ISP? Have you read any of the documentation ? Try searching for timeout. Also, you may be interested in the -ddial option. > Thanks for your thoughts, > jtkipp@students.wisc.edu -- Brian , , Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour....
