Re: pppd not working (no reply)

Modifying ipcp-max-configure and ipcp-restart does not resolve.
With noccp i get

so the "Protocol-Reject" is not the problem.
I think it is a driver problem.
My modem is

It seems that it is a driver problem and that my modem will never work on
linux (2.6.27-11), as read from

I am trying to connect to wind network, using the internal HDSPA modem.
My ppp client terminates with "IPCP: timeout sending Config-Requests".
Disabling compression eliminates the error "Protocol-Reject for
'Compression Control Protocol' (0x80fd) received", but it don't resolve
the problem. Using pap or chap don't resolve the problem. Any hint on
how to resolve the problem?

IPCP: timeout sending Config-Requests

I've not used GPRS but have seen enough posts to think PPP
implementations for cell phones are often marginal.

Try adding the pppd option novj. If that doesn't work try removing the
usepeerdns option and/or specifying a bogus local IP, e.g., "10.0.0.2:"
If it still doesn't work try commenting out "ipcp-max-configure 2" and
"ipcp-restart 100" (100 seconds is a _long_ time between IPCP requests
and the limit of 2 such requests seems a little severe).
