The web interface isn't ideal, but it works. Anyway, you can see that I have to cut and paste previous text and then "comment out" the comments. Back to this guys problem.... James, You said that you knew the protocol must be up because another router had previously been working just fine on that line. However, PPP doesn't exist on the line or in the cloud. It must be successfully negotiated between the end points for layers 2 and 3 (LCPs and NCPs, respectively). A simple "sh ip int b" would be a good first place to start. From there you may need some more advanced debug of the ppp negotiation process (such as authentication).
