>From your report, your phone line may be noisy,In the Init2 line of /etc/wvdial.conf, try replacing the +FCLASS=0 with +MS=34to improve stability. If that improves stability, you can try toincrease speed with +MS=90 Also browse the MTU (maximal transfer unit) info in /etc/ppp/options and$ man pppdDecreasing MTU may help When you report back, please include your modem hardware informationand the modem activation command you are using.
