Have a look at the "novj" option for pppd - it fixed my stall
problems. Apparently some PPP servers don't opperate to spec as far as
header compression is concerned. Another problem is how long your
modem will remain off-hook while carrier not detected (eg. house-mate
picks up the phone). Bumping up that value can stop premature
hang-ups.
