I'm having problems getting my ISDN link to stay up --
the machine will sometimes drop a b channel and not
reconnect

I'm pinging via a crontab the gateway machine every 5 minutes
and run ppp -auto bsp at boot time

I'm running software rev "J" in the BSP - and FreeBSD
2.1.5 -- using a Pentium 133 with 32 megs of RAM for 
a router - 

The ppp script is:

bsp:
 set debug phase chat lcp lqm
 set device /dev/cuaa1
 set speed 115200
 set dioal "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\"
AT*1@N0=1@N1=1&C1&D3%A4=0@B0=2%A2=95 OK-AT-OK \\dATD\\T TIMEOUT 40
CONNECT"
 deny lqr
 disable lqr
 disable pred1
 deny pred1
 set timeout 0
 set phone <number>&<number>
 accept chap
 set authkey <key>
 set authname <name>
 set ifaddr <my addr> <gw addr> 255.255.255.0
 set openmode active
 dial
 add 0 0 <gw addr>
