hi,

what's the the best init string to pass on to a 14.4 plug n' pray
USRobotics modem?

and i got this errors:

ppp0      Link encap:Point-Point Protocol 
          inet addr:xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx  P-t-P:xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx Mask:255.255.255.0   
          UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING  MTU:1500  Metric:1           
          RX packets:14 errors:7dropped:7 overruns:0          
          TX packets:22 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0

what does this mean? i have a 16550a uart chip. and the speed is 19200,
and i even lowered the mtu to 500 and it's still the same :(. What happens
is, i could connect fine, but say, after a few minutes, i got cut off.

And it's not the telephone line bacause this computer is a dual boot
debian and windoz95 computer. In windoz, it works fine.

any comments and suggestions?

tia,

Andre --
