And everything is *fine* now. ppp is connecting properly and running fine. The bad logs I sent the url about were generated after adding the bad lines "set m[rt]u 1500". > If this is the case, then I'm not sure what's happening.

Then nothing is happening. Switching to 1492 solved the problem. The problem was: before the upgrade, I already had m[rt]u set to 1500 and ppp was working fine. Upgrading made ppp stop working. Switching to set m[tr]u 1492 or removing the lines solves the problem. What might have confused you, however, was Neal, that has a similar problem and that crossposted to -stable and -questions. His problem is that ppp failed to connect after upgrade even *without* any set m[tr]u lines in his config file... Does ppp "know" the limit of the physical layer? If so, shouldn't it "force" the m[tr]u to 1492? Thanks, A. >>Ok.
