Re: ppp problem

Hi,

You could ``set log local physical phase'' prior to using ``term'', 
but assuming that the resulting logging indicates that data is being 
written, I can only guess that either the peer is dead or your 
modem's frozen.  ``set accmap 000a0000'' may protect against a 
misconfigured modem (using software flow control).
