Subject:   User PPP drops connections

Hello,

I am trying to use the user ppp to maintain a dedicated
connection to PPP server. The connection fails frequently.
This is FreeBSD straight from the 2.1.0 CDROM. The problem 
seems to get worse with the load on the connection (transferring
1 MB requires 6 resets at times).  I get messages about SIO
buffer overflows. The hardware is a 486-33 with 16 MB and a
16550A serial card attached to a 28.8 modem.

I could guess that the CPU is the problem, but doesn't that 
16MB count for anything?

Thanks for the help. 
Terry Braun
