What do you guys make of these disconnection messages if anything?I am getting constant disconnection problems. Do you think the cause of the disconnections is with the ISP or on my side. The two types of disconnection logs I get are as follows:

look like your ISP isn't answering to your PPPoE client LCP (kind of a ping) request. The problem seem to be on their side.
In /etc/ppp/pppoe.conf (maybe be named differently depending your distro), try to increase the number of LCP retry and the time of the LCP timeout. Maybe they are just slow to answer...
