Hi Folks,
I'm using NOS on my ST to connect to Demon. Most times I initially attempt
to connect, I get through OK, past the login and motd, but then it all sort
of hangs quietly doing nothing - there's no traffic going through the modem.
I've rummaged amongst the various commands for clues, and the only one that
looks promising is "ppp sl0", which gives:
Physical line dead.
[...various numbers...]
LCP Listening - waiting for remote host to attempt open.
[...more numbers...]
IPCP Listening - waiting for remote host to attempt open.
[...more stuff...]
Does this mean anything to anyone? Unfortunately, it doesn't to me. Is there
anything I can do to prod it into life? Otherwise I just wait for it (or me!)
to timeout, and start again (which may or may not then work).
Any clues would be gratefully received.
Cheers,
[M][a][r][c]
