I think the first thing to find out is why the SendTerminateReq is 
being sent.  If you enable debug, lcp, ipcp & tcp/ip logs on that end 
(the server?), hopefully we'll see why it thinks it's a good idea to 
give up.

You could also try

  disable pred1 deflate
  deny pred1 deflate

in your mpd profile - I believe there may be a problem with compression 
at the moment.

Cheers.
