    i just set up my modem to work with Linux Mandrake 7.1. the connection
works when i run it from LinuxConf (ppp/slip/plip) but not from kppp. in
kppp, the connection is established BUT nothing works! i tried netscape and
it
couldn't open any site. i thought it's a DNS problem, but when i tried to
ping a machine i know from the console, it didn't reply. my kppp settings
are as follows:

authentication: PAP
pppd arguments: noauth
IP: Dynamic IP Address
Auto-configure hostname from this IP: Unchecked
DNS: tried to leave it empty and to put in a couple of DNSs
Disable existing DNS Servers during Connection: Unchecked
Domain Name: empty
Gateway: Default Gateway
Assign the Default Route to this Gateway: Checked
Login Script: None
Device: /dev/modem (i know it's working)
Flow Control: CRTSCTS
Line Terminator: CR
Connection Speed: 57600
Use Lock File: Checked
Modem Timeout: 60 Seconds
Modem Busy Wait: 0 Seconds
PPP Timeout: 30 Seconds

any ideas??
