For me adding "noauth" option to /etc/ppp/peer/provider (formerly known as /etc/ppp.options) solved the problem - pppd tried to authenticate the peer, which refused. Now my link seems to be slow - is there a possibility to watch the throughput (like x.xx kb/s or sim.)? Thank you, Marcus -- "Rhubarb is no Egyptian god."
