Well, you have got me stumped. Username and password have to be right, or
you couldn't commect with the old number. About the only thing I can
think of would be if you have specified the server in the
/etc/ppp/pap-secrets file, and the new number responds with a different
server name. Do you have * as the second entry for the user name you log
into the system as?
<username> * <password>
or is it something like
<username> <ISP name> <password>
I am grasping at straws here - I am probably assuming something that I
shouldn't be, and missing the answer...
