"Without success" doesn't mean anything in this context. I'm not necessarily expecting you to make a connection. Your modem ought to work at 115200 bps - that's the speed between the PC and the modem, and is nothing to do with the eventual speed of the connection (49k in windows). So, what happened when you dialled the number. I take it you got that far? Does the other end answer? Without your telling us these things, we can't help you at all. > One thing I did notice when reading the pppconfig man page is that support > for mschap is not yet available, at least not in the version I'm using, > which is the one that came on the distribution CDs.

I guess I'm just funny that way :) That's still irrelevant. You will find out about authentication when you are successfully swapping LCP with the other end. Your logs showed only one-way traffic and nothing from the other end.
