Public bug reported: I have a multi-function USB device with a serial port, a parallel port and two USB ports. A dialup modem is connected to the serial port, which is given the name /dev/ttyUSB0.
I have configured GnomePPP to dial using /dev/ttyUSB0. GnomePPP dials correctly, and passes some data. However, after a few seconds, it stops receiving data from the modem. If I try to browse to a web site, I can see data being sent (the Tx bytes increases), but no data is received (Rx bytes stops at about 1K). If I connect a different serial device to the serial port, then it works correctly for as long as I have needed: up to 30 minutes. The problem seems to be when handing over from wvdial to pppd. The serial port seems to be a FTDI device -- see output from lsusb below.
