Dear All, 
      
       We are running a WISP, and i have configured a PPPoE server on
Freebsd 5.4-PRERELEASE, with interepoch equipment 1100-A APs and
Bridges, PPPoE works just great while
authentication/connection/routing/security aspects, but there is a
very big issue of user session disconnect, sometime users start
automatically disconnecting and the message appears in ppp.log is
pasted beloew, now as u may have seen that this user only took 5
minutes connectivity and after that it disconnects automatically ? i
cannot figure oit what is the problem exactly ?

following is my ppp.conf

I know what is timeout, so please dont think that users are getting dc
coz of session timeout, i have specially compiled software which sends
keepalive packets to the network every one minute and users doibnt get
dc coz of timeout, I tried to disable lqr and echo thinking that might
this is the reason for user dc, as when wireless link have weak signal
or some problem in the link, ppp might get disconnected, but no luck,
and users are still facing the same problem.
 
Please take a serious look at the problem and do let me know with your
valuable advices, i shall be thankfull to all of you.

##########ppp.conf##########
