I've had similar problems after upgrading to potato.

Used pppconfig both before and after, and my solution was to delete all the
config files (/etc/ppp/peers/*, /etc/chatscripts/*, are there any more?), possibly
purge and reinstall the necessary packages (memory is failing) and set up the
connections from scratch again.
Something seems to go wrong when using slink setup with potato pppconfig.
And that's my two cents.
