<heading>I've got problems with my IJPPP, I connect and it goes to PPP mode but I can't get out! Whats up?</heading>
<p>
One problem we have had reported is IJPPPs' use of predictor1
compression. One way of determining if you have this problem
is to look at your log and if you have protocol errors then this is
most likely it.
These can be shut off with:
<verb>
deny pred1
disable pred1
</verb>
Use these two before you dial out and it should work.
