Hi,
I have a PPP-line running from my employer to my home, which I both
have installed. Invocation and protocol start is no problem. But
always when I am trying to retrieve using full line capacity data the
line breaks down after some hundreds of kilobytes. Sometimes it
reinstalls itself (because I use the auto option on my employer's
side, which is the caller 8-) but normally it simply anything
more happens. The line is just down.
I assume that this is the result of some overflowing buffers.
but I have not read anyhing about such buffers and where they could
be restricted, thus not overflowing the line.
Please post if you have any suggestion how to solve my problem.
Thanks
Frank
