You can use the option silent so that pppd does not send any LCP packets to initiate the connection, until the ISP has sent first a valid LCP packet. > I'm not sure but maybe it is something to do with my modem.

I'm scraping the bottom of the barrel here! wvdial shows that you have a V34 modem, when BellSouth's website talks about how to configure V90 and V92. Could it be that you need something <aheam!> more modern? As far as I can figure they say that you should have correction control and compression enabled on your modem. Can yours do that? Not withstanding the above, your modem only sends packets but seems to receive nothing back from your ISP. Have you changed the serial port, or the serial cable, or the serial connector/adaptor to the modem? If you have by mistake used a null modem as opposed to a straight through RS-232 serial cable the connection is unlikely to work (properly). Do you have another modem to try it with? My ISP connection problems were isolated down to the specific modem (which was a winmodem anyway). When I tried with a different modem (still softmodem but with a V.92 std) the telephone numbers worked fine. If none of the above works then I am at a loss. It'll be down to using minicom and building scripts to troubleshoot the connection one step at a time . . . may be easier to get a better modem? Good luck. -- Regards, Mick
