I don't suppose you told pppconfig to make it an on-demand connection?

Hi Douglas,

Exactly how can I enable this?

Personally, I also use the persist option so that it redials if the
connection dies.

Cool. How can I enable this also?

I'm out in the country miles from the phone switch, so I routinly get an
average of 3 KB/s.  How do you get 30-50 KB/s?  At 28.8 K bps with n81
that's 9 bits per byte so that's 3.2 K bytes/s.  At 56 Kbps at n81
that's 6.2 K bytes/s.  I wonder what units linux's 30 KB and Windoze 50
KB are referring to.  Could it be something like the difference between
K=1000 and K=1024?

Sorry a typo :) Meant Kb[it] not KB[yte].
