If you named you ISP as "provider" (without the quotes) then you can initiate a ppp session using pon, and close it using poff. If you named your ISP "foobar", then use pon foobar. You will of course, also have to be a member of the dialout group to use ppp.

What do you mean by "if u use the normal one i only go at 1kbs" ?

Cheers,

mj
