RE: PPP problem, ppp8?!?



couldn't get a connection myself using pon/poff and pppconfig. wvdial works
like a breeze, though.
Or rather, I could get a connection, but afterwards nothing (I never got a
response to any request). Any idea what can cause that (my isp uses static
ip, PAP, I have default gateway and 2 DNS servers for it).

Murphy was wrong, things that can't go wrong will anyway
