Joshua, /* Does this always happen when you redial after being disconnected? Can you try reloading the modules when you disconnect (in ppp-down, etc.)? */ No, it happens once in a blue moon :(, I went 4 days straight and it was working great. So no problem. What worries me, is that when this happens, the machine is unbootable for a while. I have to disconnect power and connect back after a while and then all works back without problems. But that is another thing I guess.
