There is a patch that fixes this problem but as far as I can tell it has
not made its way into the upstream ppp source. What is happening is that
the mobile ISP is demanding that the client accept MS DNS servers which
ppp refuses to do so the connection is terminated. From my
experimentation is not ISP specific rather than cell specific. For
example I have AT&T it will work in one "area" and fail across town,
still on the same AT&T network.

Patch is located here:
