Just to add to the pppd confusion, I start my pppd with the basic pon command, now, I think its my ISP but not sure, sometimes when running my ISP seems to break ppp, although it doesnt disconnect the modem.. My pppd detects this and tries to *redial* using the chatscript, when it doesnt need to, all that needs to happen is run pppd again, and the ppp connection comes back up... I could be wrong with all this, is it my end thats breaking the connection? I sometimes think that it is due to the fact that the remote end seems willing enuf to restart.. Who's/what end is at fault and how can it be remedied? Some said to me thats coz its running passive mode, but its not... I am stumped...
