Hi
PPP is a different layer to the VDSL transport, so if your modem is sync'd then regardless of G.INP settings, it is unlikely that is causing an issue with the PPP connection.

Phil,
I know and would agree with your comment totally based on my understanding.
BUT
....
An example could be replacement of an ECI modem (which natively does not support PhyR) on a line that already has an INP profile applied by the DLM, may not be able to obtain PPP until its firmware has been updated.
....from the quote I included,
disregarding the modem type, appears to imply that the switch from an existing INP to G.INP can fail & is manifest by the PPP failing to establish.
[If I am understanding it correctly]
I was on an existing INP as DLM was/is playing havoc on my line applying INP (amongst other things) where usually I was on 0/0.
Hence, I am wondering if the implementation of G.INP on the Zyxel is not 100% compatible with whatever BT/OR have implemented G.INP on, I might get the same effect as in the quote.
i.e. PPP does not work but as it is a possible mismatch of G.INP implementation it is not 100% failing 100% of the time.
Hence I can get a connection eventually.
Note: The Zyxel implements PhyR which is a 1st implemention of what became G.INP, if my background reading is correct.The error I can see is an authentication error after DSL is up and running.
This is with a correct userID/Password that has previously worked.
It does work after many attempts.
In all attempts the DSL connection is made but the Internet light only lights IF the PPP session is established.
More than happy for someone more knowledgable to tell me I am wrong, as the problem is then somewhere else.
