I can get the modem to dial but it hangs up >after about a minute or so...This is what i have done: A couple of things: 1) After you connect (Which we have not determined that is actually what is happening), what does the result of "ifconfig" give you? Is ppp0 listed? 2) What happens when you type: "ping altavista.digital.com" after you connect? 3) What does /var/log/messages tell you is happening? If it does not give you the info you want, try adding "-v" to the list of options for the program chat... example: pppd connect "chat -v -f /etc/stratos" /dev/cua2 115200 crtscts modem --------------- See what happens...
