It means that pppd is seeing its own LCP packets coming back.  This usually
happens when the host on the other end wants to see more text before it
starts pppd and is echoing everything it sees while it waits for the
required string.  Dial up your ISP with minicom and work through the login
procedure by hand to see how it works (this is not a method of connecting:
it's just research).  Post the results along with the contents of
/etc/chatscripts/provider and /etc/ppp/peers/provider.  Munge passwords.
