Hi,
I've decided not to play anymore games on my PC so I removed the XP OS and installed FC4 based on a workstation configuration plus KDE.
After I configured the kppp, I've lost somehow the modem commands default settings. After a serch on the internet at a local Net Cafe, I've put all back.
The problem is it fails to log on to ISP.

Nov 22 21:12:41 localhost pppd[2916]: Connection terminated.
Nov 22 21:12:41 localhost pppd[2916]: Exit.
I have an onboard ethernet card and I have tryed in both configuration enabled and disabled from BIOS.
The same hardware configuration and modem worked a year ago when I was playing with RH9 but a different ISP that, now, I cannot connect to, because it uses some sort of a personal dialer that is available only for Windows.
What is the possible problem? Not the right modules installed?
Thank you in advance.
PS. I've searched on the forum and found out that the questions with the same problem ".. return error 5" and ".. on signal 15", received no answers.

So it does not need to log on to network. How do I disable this option. Thanks.
