I am also having this problem with Ubuntu 10.04 and a Huawei E1762 modem. My provider likes to terminate the PPP session for no reason anywhere from 1 minute to 2 days after a connection eg:
Aug 31 08:25:30 myth pppd[2313]: LCP terminated by peer Aug 31 08:25:30 myth pppd[2313]: Connect time 127.7 minutes. Aug 31 08:25:30 myth pppd[2313]: Sent 2547370 bytes, received 16321521 bytes. Aug 31 08:25:30 myth pppd[2313]: Modem hangup Aug 31 08:25:30 myth pppd[2313]: Connection terminated. Aug 31 08:25:31 myth pppd[2313]: Exit. Doing a "sudo killall modem-manager" seems to kill the old process and somehow it automatically restarts - by which mechanism I don't know. After that I can manually restart the connection again using the network manager GUI. I'd love it if network-manager and modem-manager worked in concert to allow automatic reconnects, with an upper limit of reconnections if so desired. I'll happily pass along more debug information if so required. -- USB Modem wont connect after modem hangup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/566812 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
