Is there a way to close the PPP link without using the ON-OFF switch on the modem ? By the way, thanks to many people who posted in this newsgroup providing hints in setting up PPP connection. It is very stable and I don't need to use pppd which requires a kernel recompile. Many thanks to you all. Freebsd is an excellent alternative to Linux. I actually like them both. EW
