The serial line looped back is probably the problem. (If this is doing what
mine did when I tried to set up ppp,) the other side is not responding
immediately, and is still echoing characters.
To fix this, set your "chat script" to have more arguments in it, ie log in
manually and see what the last string before connection is, and have chat
wait for that.
Or, if this is not possible, have chat wait for a few seconds (again log in
manually to see how long of a wait is necessary) and the problem should be
fixed.
chat ..... password $pass selection ppp STRING
where the other side says "STRING" right before connecting ppp.
chat ..... password $pass selection ppp\n\d\d\d\d\d\d\d\c
would delay 6 to 7 seconds. (man chat)
