Hi, I have a problem with PPPD. Well, when It finds that the line is occupied it tries to dial three times, and after it waits for almost an hour to reconnect : tail of my router /var/log/messages Jan 10 23:00:23 router pppd[4923] : pppd 2.3.8 started by root, uid 0 Jan 10 23:00:23 router pppd[4924] : Can't get terminal parameters : IOCTL function is not correct ### Problem with the driver of modem ??? Jan 10 23:00:24 router chat[4926] : send (atdtw977123000^M) Jan 10 23:00:24 router chat[4926] : expect (CONNECT) Jan 10 23:00:24 router chat[4926] : atdtw977123000^M^M Jan 10 23:00:24 router chat[4926] : DELAYED 00:54:52^M Jan 10 23:00:24 router chat[4926] : Connect script failed I want to reduce the idle time. I believe pppd should create a lock file with iddle time but I tried to find this file but I couldn't find. Am I wrong ??
