I don't know if you've noticed the messages pertaining to this. I've
looked at a few of them, I think this kind of analysis would be extremely
useful for us. I'm not sure what it all means, however, if we could get a
feel for the amount of people we have getting "lost carrier", maybe it will
help in narrowing down the problem.

Do you have many Win 3.11 and/or Mac users? My understanding is
that many of the Win3.1x stacks just drop connection on ppp sessions, and
the older mac stacks do the same, giving a lost carrier message. How
about slip connections? Don't slip connections always give a lost carrier
message?

Just a few ideas, we have no SLIP customers, and maybe 2%
win3.1x/older Mac.
