Hello to everybody! I tried to use my GPRS phone for Internet connection. When pppd try to connect,remote server response as follow:

It is very strange that server send a broadcast IP for remote IP. I've just tried to use ipcp-accept-local and ipcp-accept-remote, but the connection follow down.

I'd like to see the log when you use ipcp-accept-local and ipcp-accept-remote. Who is your gprs provider? Are you using a chap or pap secrets file? Are you sure that you are dialing the correct number for access?

I have just gone through all of this with t-mobile and gprs, so I am pretty sure that I can help you.

I found success putting an entry for ppp config like this:
name gprs

and adding a line in the pap-secrets file like this:
gprs * gprs

It really doesn't matter what name you use as long as it matches the name used in the pap-secrets file. I know it sounds stupid, but that is what was holding me up. Assuming you are dialing the correct number, (there may be multiple numbers for the same provider and only one of which you are authorized to use), try adding the name and pap entry, and you should be using the ipcp-accept local and remote options too. We'll work on DNS when you actually get and stay connected. There's a trick to that too....

Let me know...

Thanks for your reply! My operator is Vodafone (Italy). I've already
tried to use name gprs or username gprs, without results

My chap script is:

ABORT BUSY
ABORT 'NO CARRIER'
ABORT VOICE
ABORT 'NO DIALTONE'
ABORT 'NO DIAL TONE'
ABORT 'NO ANSWER'
ABORT DELAYED
TIMEOUT 10

OK ATE1
OK AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","web.omnitel.it","",0,0
SAY "Calling Vodafone GPRS\n"
TIMEOUT 60
OK ATD*99#
CONNECT ''

I also tried to substitute *99# with *99***1# without success.

pppd version 2.4.1 - kernel 2.6.1 ( I' ve also tried with 2.6.5 ) - My phone LG G5300 - I use an USB to Serial connection with a pl2303 connector and the LG vendor cable

Did you use a pap-secrets file when you used "user gprs" in the pppd config? The secrets files are in /etc/ppp.

Also make sure that "web.omnitel.it" is correct for your SIM. Verify with Vodafone. I had three SIMs and radios working with "internet2.voicestream.com" but it did not work with new SIMs that I received shortly afterwards because they were configured to work with "internet3.voicestream.com" Just a thought...

thanks for your reply tlaresearch. I'm sure that vodafone cannot require pap autentication,but I've tried to add 'user gprs' without results. However I've test and logged my phone with windows and I verified with my chat script. It is correct. I belive that the problem is pppd, however I use an internet connection with an internal slmodem without problem. I've already tested my connection with another operator and the problem is the same. Any iseas?

I have almost the same problem here
but i don't get these messages, may be because my cellular differs, however, i suspect its a related problem:

the pppd's files are the same

anyone has an idea?

may be someone has success connecting to this omnitel?

these 2 are making the problem you suffer from, and as i see, its provider's fault, really, why their "router" should be 255.255.255.255 ? looks crappy...
can you try a sim card from another provider?

another $.02
read here (look for mails with 255.255.255.255) in subj:
http://www.faqchest.com/linux/PPP/pp...12/ppp-021201/
so it is providers crap, their are violate all the RFCs

I think it should go into some FAQ somewhere...
However, the guy is pointing into the code that leads to this problem, and as i understand its fixable, at least pppd can re-request it, and just drop the IPCP session.

As an advise, try to reach that guy, may be he fixed it and will send you a patch, another advise, talk to pppd guys, find them somewhere on the samba.org, this can go into some "quirks" features, if they want to help ppl (usually they do, but slow. and the last advise: go buy another sim card :-)

Thx for your reply! Sorry,but I do not found any solution. I've tried with another sim to connect without any results.
