couldn't get a connection myself using pon/poff and pppconfig. wvdial works like a breeze, though. Or rather, I could get a connection, but afterwards nothing (I never got a response to any request). Any idea what can cause that (my isp uses static ip, PAP, I have default gateway and 2 DNS servers for it).
