kppp hardware modem

[Cyber Source]

You shouldn't have changed the perms on /usr/sbin/pppd, that should be 
set back to 555. The perm for kppp should be changed to u+s for 
/usr/sbin/kppp, then after, create a symlink to /usr/sbin/kppp at 
/usr/bin/kppp. You slow connection could be alot of reasons, most likely 
the initialization string. Try this one without the quotes 
"AT&F&C1&D2S7=60\R". minicom is also a great tool to use to check 
initialization strings, connections, etc.
