    One moment my laptop's PCMCIA modem was working fine, and the next
    time I tried to use it, it wasn't fine. When trying to dial up to my
    ISP, here are the critical parts from /var/log/syslog:

    pppd[546]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyS1
    pppd[546]: sent [LCP ConfReq id=0x1 <asyncmap 0x0> <magic 0xe1ca08e4>
        <pcomp> <accomp>]
    pppd[546]: last message repeated 9 times
    pppd[546]: LCP: timeout sending Config-Requests
    pppd[546]: Connection terminated.
    pppd[546]: Receive serial link is not 8-bit clean:
    pppd[546]: Problem: all had bit 7 set to 0
    pppd[546]: Exit

    O.k., so it seems to be telling me exactly what the problem is:

    Problem: all had bit 7 set to 0

    So what does one do about this problem?

    How do I change bit 7 to something other than 0? Should I?

    P.S. I know the ISP is o.k., as I've dialed into it from another
    machine.

    Thanks.

    Kevin
