Try any of these

a) download the sp2 RAS hotfix from
ftp.microsoft.com/bussys/winnt/winnt-public/fixes/usa/nt40/hotfixes-postSP2/ras-fix/RAS40I.EXE

b) make sure you are not using the same IP address on your network card
and your RAS connection

c) Try the quick fix using regedit:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\RasMan\PPP
add the DWORD value 'DisableMultilink' and set to 1.

d) [best of all], read the FAQ posted recently by Nigel Barker in this
ng.
