Hmmm, I have seen some problems relating to access via dialup.

Could you grab a trace of the traffic and uuencode it and email it to me?

If you can, from the server, try:

  tcpdump -i ppp0 -s 1500 -w somefile

And then ^c after you have finished the dial-up test, uuencode it and send
it to me as an attachment.
