While being connected to my isp sometimes the CS switches off for a few seconds; also when de modem is transmitting/receiving x aplications take long time to load (like 5-10 seconds, which is really annoying in a Pentium IV), or even executing. I thought maybe all these things are related. It happens both using ppp and pppd, using freebsd 5.1. Is this logical? Thanks in advance
