Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ppp
I'm using a SpeedTouch device to get to the ethernet. The internet
connection is established through pppoe (I connect to the modem through
a ethernet link). The modem gets its "signal" by a phone line.
Since this norming, when there's a phone call coming into our house, ppp
dies. It's already happend 4 or 5 times today. It hadn't happend before.
Here's what I can get from syslog:
Aug 9 17:44:47 parrados pppd[12353]: No response to 3 echo-requests
Aug 9 17:44:47 parrados pppd[12353]: Serial link appears to be disconnected.
Aug 9 17:44:47 parrados pppd[12353]: Connect time 183.4 minutes.
Aug 9 17:44:47 parrados pppd[12353]: Sent 3895600 bytes, received 75627365
bytes.
Aug 9 17:44:47 parrados pppd[12353]: Connection terminated.
Aug 9 17:44:47 parrados pppoe[12354]: read (asyncReadFromPPP): Session 1236:
Input/output error
Aug 9 17:44:47 parrados pppoe[12354]: Sent PADT
Aug 9 17:44:47 parrados pppd[12353]: Exit.
There was nothing else that I could find in other files relevant.
PS I just tried resetting the modem to see what would happen to the
connection. Till yesterday, if the connection went down (resetting, a
phone call), the ppp connection would go down and then after a while it
would come back online. Not today:
Aug 9 18:01:57 parrados pppd[15395]: No response to 3 echo-requests

I'll restart it again... just in case you see something valuable:
$ sudo /etc/restartinternet.sh
[sudo] password for myuser:
pppoe-stop: The pppoe-connect script (PID 15378) appears to have died
Killing pppd (15395)
. Connected!
$
Hope that helps.
