My ppp connection is (stalling)

["David J. Kanter" <djkanter@nwu.edu>]

This is driving me nuts. My PPP connection seems to be stalling all the
time. I'm often seeing (stalled) in Netscape, and trying to do some updates
to Potato has become painful (multiple mirror sites); it'll download a bit,
then stop, download a bit, then stall...you get the picture.

I remember reading something about PPP and the 2.2.X kernels. Could that be
what's going on? I've got my pon configured to use all the compressions I can.

Thanks.
