If you look at the home page of WinPcap:

        http://netgroup-serv.polito.it/winpcap/

it says:

        Please send bug reports to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If you look at the home page of WinPcap, it also has a link to the FAQ,
at:

        http://netgroup-serv.polito.it/winpcap/misc/faq.htm

and one entry in the FAQ is:

        Q-4: Can I use WinPcap on a PPP connection?

        A: We have tested WinPcap on PPP connections under Windows 95,
        Windows 98 and Windows ME.  In Windows 95, due to a bug in NDIS,
                                    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
        WinPcap sometimes resets the PPP connection.  In Windows 98/ME
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
        this bug appears to be corrected, and WinPcap seems to work
        properly.  Under Windows NT and Windows 2000 there are problems
        with the binding process, that prevents a protocol driver from
        working properly on the WAN adapter.

which might be the problem you're having.

I know nothing more about that problem, so don't send me further
questions on it, as I probably won't be able to answer them; further
mail on the problem should go to [EMAIL PROTECTED], as per
the note on the WinPcap home page.
