I'm not sure if its going to help but I'll tell you what I did that fixed that
problem.
I'm running linux mandrake 7.1 and when I started using kppp I had to change
the speed that the data is being sent. start out with is set at the slowest
speed and if it conects bump the speed up to the next level. Keep doing it
untill it won't conect then drop down one setting. also make sure that your
modem dip switchs are set right. I have no idea what kind of modem your running
but I'm sure it has some type of code it is supose to go by on the bottem of
it, that is if its a externial modem. Also Make sure linux suports that modem.
Most people
go out and by linux thinking that all of their hardware is going to work only
to discover that it won't. In other words, Make sure its not a win modem.
I hope that helps you out.
