The card seems to be sending and receiving OK. I'm wondering if this is a ppp problem?

Status: NEW Severity: normal Owner: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Submitter: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Most recent kernel where this bug did not occur: 2.6.12 Distribution: Gentoo Linux AMD64 Hardware Environment: Athlon64, asus k8v deluxe, pcmcia/pci bridge, Novatel Merlin u530 Software Environment: gcc 3.4.4-r1, binutils 2.16.1, pcmcia-cs 3.2.8-r2 Problem Description: Novatel Merlin u530 is a gprs/umts(3g) pcmcia card. When i insert the card, its mapped as ttyS2. Then i pon gprs(a script which works for my isp) and it DOES establish a connection, BUT it will start working at 1Kbps and in a matter of few seconds, decrease until reaching 0Bs. The connection isnt hung up, but it wont work anymore. My guess is that this bug might be related somehow with http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5569 and http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5678 . But just my guess.
