But then you are allowing ipv6 packets to get out, and the system will expect to be answered in that protocol as well, but it will get no response. Anyway, I have dissabled ipv6 completely, but no speed difference.

Is ppp0 active at boot?
No, I activate it manually running wvdial on a console when needed.

No need, this can be done in /etc/modprobe.conf.
I just did that - no improvement at all :-( -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
