sorry didnt respond sooner, is 2400 the max speed ? what type of interface are you using on your router? we use the serial links going through an x.21 device (I cant name it as its military) If you are using a serial link then change the ecnap to hdlc rather than ppp. Also try reducing the mtu as if you are using the default 1500 then its probably too high. Or are you using a modem port without and intermediate device? try configring the bandwidth statements at both ends, and again reduce the mtu. if you are using a modem dialer type config try setting you diarler hold queue to a longer time period. If you have ppp quality set then turn it off.
