Greetings:

   I recently moved FreeBSD to a new computer (did a reinstall, only copied
motd and a few other files), and ever since the move, my modem has been
involuntarily disconnecting while I am on the internet.  While I am on the
web or doing downloads, things work fine and I can be on for hours at a time
, but as soon as I do something which requires short, quick blips back and
forth between myself and another machine (in particular, checking my mail,
finger, ICQ), the modem disconnects.  Any ideas what the problem might be? 
I'm currently running FreeBSD 2.1.7 with the new, hacked version of ppp,
which was obtained from the FreeBSD site.  

Thanks in advance,




Andrew Stevens.
