	Retrain's are transparent for most modems with PPP, other than a delay and very small
	amount of buffer overrun (in the client end TCP/PPP stack). Heck ... with many PPP
	setups, the line can drop and PPP will redial transparently without packet loss. So
	10 second packet delays are not totally unexpected without knowing a lot more about
	the specific nature of the problem and determinging where the packet lived for the
	10 second delay.

Almost forgot ... turn on the most verbose level of ppp logging and watch the session.


... and as a side chuckle ...

spammers ... it's a good thing most of us are not paying by the minute for ISP services any
more :)

Have fun,
John
