I would add:

5. Use MacTCP not TCP/IP (even though TCP/IP is one of the things the patch
updates).

Unfortunately I couldn't even get a connection with the above set up. It
went through ogin: ocol: etc fine until "Establishment" at which point it
just stayed like that and eventually hung up the phone.

I'm now back to MacPPP 2.2.0a with sort of a half connection.

Thanks all the same.

David
