LCP PAD0 timeouts - trying to use Rh9 to connect over ADSL

[rylan76]

Hi guys

How can I fix

Jun 19 03:52:35 StefanLinux pppd[3519]: pppd 2.4.1 started by root, uid 0
Jun 19 03:52:35 StefanLinux pppd[3519]: Using interface ppp0
Jun 19 03:52:35 StefanLinux pppd[3519]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/pts/3
Jun 19 03:52:35 StefanLinux /etc/hotplug/net.agent: assuming ppp0 is already up
Jun 19 03:53:06 StefanLinux pppd[3519]: LCP: timeout sending Config-Requests
Jun 19 03:53:06 StefanLinux pppd[3519]: Connection terminated.
Jun 19 03:53:07 StefanLinux /etc/hotplug/net.agent: NET unregister event not
supported
Jun 19 03:53:10 StefanLinux pppoe[3520]: Timeout waiting for PADO packets
Jun 19 03:53:10 StefanLinux pppd[3519]: Exit.

My ADSL router / modem works just fine in Windows, but it is as dead a dodo in Linux. I can ping it just fine, but how do I get it to connect to my ISP like it does in Windows? I have tried using adsl-setup, but string to "up" the connection with ifup ppp0 just gives the above in var/log/messages.

I have the following config files:

sysctl.conf:

net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1

# Controls source route verification
net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter = 1

# Controls the System Request debugging functionality of the kernel
kernel.sysrq = 0

# Controls whether core dumps will append the PID to the core filename.
# Useful for debugging multi-threaded applications.
kernel.core_uses_pid = 1
~

/etc/network:

NETWORKING=yes
HOSTNAME=StefanLinux
GATEWAYDEV=eth0
FORWARD_IPV4=yes

Commandlines for pppd and pppoe from adsl-setup:

root 3672 3662 0 03:59 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/pppd pty /usr/sbin/pppoe -p /var/run/pppoe-adsl.pid.pppoe -I eth0 -T 20 -U -m 1412 ipparam ppp0 linkname ppp0 noipdefault noauth default-asyncmap defaultroute hide-password nodetach mtu 1492 mru 1492 noaccomp noccp nobsdcomp nodeflate nopcomp novj novjccomp

USERCTL=yes

DEVICE=ppp0
TYPE=xDSL
ONBOOT=no
PIDFILE=/var/run/pppoe-adsl.pid

CONNECT_TIMEOUT=60
DEFROUTE=yes
SYNCHRONOUS=no
ETH=eth0
PROVIDER=DSLppp0
USER='guest1@telkomadsl'
PEERDNS=no
PERSIST=no

I have configured the connection correctly using adsl-setup but I keep getting LCP PAD0 errors.

Any ideas? What must I change? How can I get ADSL access in Linux?

Thanks!

Hi guys,

Just thought I report I got this solved. I discovered I don't need to use PPPoE - all I needed was a properly configured gateway. All is fine now, I can surf under Linux just dandy!

Thanks!
