"ppp sl0 lcp close" has always dropped the line for me too (4 meg 
Falcon). If the function key shortcuts are still as per the defaults 
then simply hitting F9 should do the job - a couple of seconds later 
the modem hangs up. Then type exit, hit return and watch your Falcon 
crash as Nos tries to hand the system back over to Oasis.:-(

In general I have found the Ascend lines to be a big improvement with 
the exception of one line - "du-finch-15" - which is guaranteed to 
drop my connection within ten minutes of login. All of the other lines 
are ok but guess which one I seem to get more than the others....

Anybody else have this problem?

By the way, I'm dialing from Glasgow.

Hoots mon!
