I have the same problem with my OEM USR Sportster 28.8! However, I only have problems under Debian and not Win95. I get pauses and hang-ups very frequently that are about to drive me insane! I have the S12=0 set on both platforms as has been mentioned in past threads. Is the Linux PPP more senstive to line noise? PPP almost always terminates in these instances with a SIGHUP signal.(I don't send it.) (/var/log/messages snippet) Jun 24 08:37:22 servis pppd[249]: Hangup (SIGHUP) Jun 24 08:37:22 servis pppd[249]: Modem hangup Jun 24 08:37:22 servis pppd[249]: Connection terminated. Maybe the register to set is S10 which pauses after loss of carrier before hang up? Anybody have any suggestions for us?
