Perhaps you have one of the problems that I had encouter : in fact in the background mode, ppp connect only when you try to open an IP connection with internet, pppoa2m start only when you make a ping, or things like that open a web page, mail, whatever). Just try to make a ping, and make a top at the same time, in my case pppoa2m appears a few times before success in opening a connection.

I am using pppoa2m, and the latest speedtouch for bsd. I am using the exact sample ppp.conf (edited for my vpi.vci and username/password) that came with the package. I execute the modem_run command, which runs fine. Then I execute 'ppp -background adsl'. It says that my PPP session has opened successfully. But, it never opens 'pppoa2'. When i do 'ps aux | grep pppoa2, it shows me taht pppoa2 is not running, which in turn is not letting me send/recieve data through my PPP connection. This just started happening all of a sudden. I tried recompiling pppoa2, and everything, and it is still not working. If I try to start pppoa2 manually it does not work either. This is an example of what is logged into pppoa2.log: > > -- > I'm the parent process, I handle endpoint 0x07 > pty descriptors: fdin=3, fdout=4 > Increasing SNDBUF from 2048 to 65536 > Increasing RCVBUF from 4096 to 65536 > Im the children process, I handle endpoint 0x87 > -- > > That is all that it shows each pppoa2 session, when it tries to start. There are no errors in ppp.log, it dials successfully, just pppoa2 does not start. > > Someone have ANY ideas on what could be going on?
