add here a line that looks like: :10.255.255.254 with this line you set the remote address to be 10.255.255.254 (you can choose any other by your taste). > ipcp-accept-local > ipcp-accept-remote > lock > noaccomp > noauth > nobsdcomp > noccp > nodefaultroute > novj > user "" > ### --- ### > ... > > Now when I try to connect with `pppd call vodafone1`, I get this error > message: > # tail -f /var/log/daemon > pppd[24712]: pppd 2.3.5 started by daniell, uid 0 > pppd[24712]: Serial connection established. > pppd[24712]: Using interface ppp0 > pppd[24712]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/cuaU0 > pppd[24712]: Could not determine remote IP address yeah, those damned modems these days, they just send IPCP Conf-Ack messges with no IP address in them. pppd seems to be a little strict on it (personally i think it would be more relaxed, as for P2P link the peer address is not that important) > pppd[24712]: Connection terminated. > > > Right now I'm stuck :\ > Any advice would be appreciated. > > Thanks! > > > Daniel
