Very Computer

I'm having a strange problem on RH7.3, I have the exact same configuration
on the /etc/wvdial.conf on a RH7.2 and a RH7.3 machines. Both have the
same wvdial and ppp version and with the RH7.2 I have no problem connectin
to my ISP but with RH7.3 this is what happens: (I have set the "Stupid
Mode = 0" parameter on this run in order to dump what is receiving -I
think- from the ISP but with this option set to 1 is the same) [Modem is
an external USRobotics 56K]

... and the same again ...

The logs shows:
/var/log/messages:
Jul 18 16:22:09 host pppd[28283]: pppd 2.4.1 started by root, uid 0
Jul 18 16:22:09 host pppd[28283]: Using interface ppp0

Jul 18 16:22:39 host pppd[28283]: LCP: timeout sending Config-Requests
Jul 18 16:22:39 hsot pppd[28283]: Connection terminated.
Jul 18 16:22:39 host pppd[28283]: Exit.

Any clue what this can be and a tip on how to fix it?

Thanks in advance,

William
