DSL Connection - Connects Rarely, Shows PPP Failed [SOLVED]

Post by x-b0t »

Hi guys,

I recently switched from Windows 7 to Linux Mint 17.2, and I am unable to connect internet using DSL Wired Connection. I've to shut down my laptop 2 to 3 times, because Mint simply does not connect to internet in one session. Notifications show these messages :

1. PPP Failed 2. new pppoe connection failed ("connection name" failed)

This is troublesome.

Please help guys.

Note : I'm using cloned MAC ID.

Note : I am new to Linux. Please give an explained solution. :D Thanks :P

Here are print-screens the settings of DSL connection :

Probably Gnome-PPP is the right program for DSL connections.

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install gnome-ppp
