Hi! I noticed, that even after line is dropped, pppstats(8) will
still report packets going in and out. The number of in ones is
ususally the same as outs. Is pppd talikng itself, or the numbers
simply make no sence at all? If the former, may it be the reason
for a LOW ppp-speed when the connection is up? With 28.8 modem
(yes, it does connect on 28800), I've never got above 1.2K/s ftp
:( Thanks!
