wow, I just haven't told u about the peer error because it just occured when I tryed to connect to my isp using the kppp programm. and that's nothing to do with the connection speed... and I just can't connect with it even now because I dunno nothing about peers... I think because in redhat systems there's nothing about it (in the directory /etc/ppp...) and I haven't need to configure anything like this to connect using kppp... I copyed my pap-secrets and chap-secrets to debian and pppd gives me an error, telling me that he couldn't authenticate enough to get an ip address, I dunno right what was on that error... oh, and my provider uses pap ! but I think it wouldn't help because usually I conect using terminal based authentication, just to remember my password ;) with pon and poff it haven't changed too. I still downloading things at 820, 830bytes/second... well, I'll see what I can do here. thanks, rafael
