The latest *scientific* results are in from the comparison between AT&T and Prodigy ISP's in Mexico:

I know you are waiting with baited breath for more *scientific* results:

AT&T Mexico does not sighup but it has trouble staying up more than a day. You get this:

Dec  7 10:27:32 debian pppd[7441]: No response to 4 echo-requests
Dec  7 10:27:32 debian pppd[7441]: Serial link appears to be disconnected.
Dec 7 10:27:32 debian pppd[7441]: Script /etc/ppp/ip-down started (pid 7578) Dec 7 10:27:32 debian pppd[7441]: sent [LCP TermReq id=0x2 "Peer not responding"] Dec 7 10:27:32 debian pppd[7441]: Script /etc/ppp/ip-down finished (pid 7578), status = 0x0
Dec  7 10:27:34 debian pppd[7441]: Hangup (SIGHUP)

I have never had that before, but two sighups since the new ISP and both with the same phenomenon. It appears ppp gets no response to echo-requests and hangs up.

And why is that? Who knows? How does an ISP work? Somebody playing with the ech-request button?
