Hi all,

I am running a SuSe 7.0 system (2.2.16 kernel).  I have just returned back
to the UK from Germany where I was happily enjoying an ISDN PPP (IPPP)
connection to my ISP.  But now I've returned back to the UK, I've switched
to using a standard US Robotics analogue modem.  It connects fine on Win32
but fails in negotiation on my Linux system.  SuSe uses wvdial as dialup
tool, below is the output from wvdial and /var/log/messages.

I don't seem to be receiving acknowledgment for my LCP ConfReq, which to me
means I am sending an invalid ConfReq or I am failing to recognise an
acknowledgment.  This is not an ISP problem because I have tried connecting
to different providers.  So I'm thinking maybe its a configuration problem I
have.  I have not upgraded my kernel as yet so I'm still using the default
module build.  If anybody has else has had similar problems, or can advise
me on different things that I can try then please reply.

Please help!
