I haven't read the whole thread in detail, so forgive me if this was covered. Perhaps a way of tagging a modem/driver/whatever with "never use PPP" would be workable. Off by default of course.
If you like. Whatever is going to work for the general use case. However, no matter how you finely tune it, no matter how you choose values, there's always a chance of detection failure (which is OK), but falling back to PPP is never going to be acceptable, certainly not in what I'm building. I don't need to be debugging such situations in the field; there's no justification for it. I'd prefer to pursue removing PPP dependency entirely as I'm doing; that saves space, and reduces complexity. Let me know if is going to be something that works for you. I just wish I'd done this 6 months ago; would have saved myself a lot of grief.
