Dial-up



I am having a problem dialing into my ISP (net-link) under linux.  When
i use minicom to dial, it will connect and prompt for the username and
password, and once i type all that in, it will start some wierd symbols
and stuff.  Then i hit alt-q (i think, i dont remember, its been a
while) then i type pppd into a new xterm window.  And it starts the
symbols and everything too.  But i ALWAYS get disconnected after about
30 to 45 sec after i type my password, it happened so many times i could
almost pinpoint the time it would disconnect.  I edited /etc/resolv.conf
to show:

        domainname net-link.net
        nameserver 205.217.6.2
        nameserver 205.217.6.3

and my /dev/modem to show:

/dev/modem

115200
defaultroute
noipdefault
asyncmap 0
debug
crtscts
lock
modem

(all it had in there before was "lock")

Is there anything else i need to edit or add to the edited files?

Thanks,
