Hi folks,
This thread is beginning to get out of control.
Could someone lend me a pci modem with one of these Lucent/Agere chipsets in
it for a little while so I can experiment with it?
I have a few ideas to try but cannot be away from home for hours on end.

Hi Alan,
Great perseverance
try commenting out one or the other and see what happens - ie so you can
identify which line is causing the problem - could be as simple as a non

True, also should these be readable by anyone else? I see they are owned by

The correct format is...
username* password
ie
zl3kr * password

Good. That's to be expected. Now we know exactly what B command does.
All we need now is a precise copy of /etc/ppp/options
