Hi everyone.I am not a great linux boffin so please be patient.I have setup smoothwall to create a dialup via th eI-burst modem ussing pppoe.

I get the folowing erros in th elogs and I am not sure where to start looking.

08:54:48 pppd Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyp1
08:54:48 pppoe read (asyncReadFromPPP): Session 59: Input/output error
08:54:48 pppoe Sent PADT
08:54:53 pppoe PPP session is 61
08:54:54 pppd PAP authentication failed
08:55:00 pppd Connection terminated.
08:55:00 pppd Using interface ppp0
08:55:00 pppd Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyp0
08:55:00 pppoe read (asyncReadFromPPP): Session 61: Input/output error

I dont think that its an authentication problem, if you ask me the smoothwall box is not talking to the modem properly.

If I change the autentication method to MSCHAP /PAP I get authentication failure.
