ping 193.175.81.44 ---> failedI do not know what your problem is, but the PPP session is successfully negotiated and even DNS queries are exachanged. Your pings to 193.175.81.44 are rejected by 193.175.81.253 which is on the same network, so the PPP link is working.
I tried to observe the problem for about one week now. I noticed about 20% failures when trying pon to establish a connection. This is definitely a ppp problem and I wonder whether I should reassign this bug back because of the log of our discussion or open a new one. The real problem is that I can't prove this via tcpdump. What happens? 1) User calls "pon dsl-provider". In about 80% this works fine, but in 20% this fails. Some ppp[0-3] devices are created in addition to eth1. 2) "ping www.debian.org" fails 3) Try the same as root fails as well 4) Start "tcpdump -i eth1" and do "pon dsl-provider" as root works fine. So we have some quantum mechanics effect here: If you look at it it works but if you are not looking it might fail. Please tell me what I can do more to track down the problem.
