For Maria, Yes, there are preferences for Open Transport and OT/PPP. First, make sure you have all the necessary information written down for filling out the TCP/IP and PPP information, as deleting the preferences will delete this information (DNS entries, phone number, modem scripts, etc.).
I don't use OT/PPP on my 5300cs, but for Open Transport the two pref files you need to delete are: TCP/IP Preferences (Preferences folder) MacTCP DNR (System folder) The OT/PPP prefs sould have PPP in the name. Good luck.
