Question

How to dial into a slip or ppp account?

Answer

In computing, the Point-to-Point Protocol, or PPP, is commonly used to establish a direct connection between two nodes. It can connect computers using serial cable, phone line, trunk line, cellular telephone, specialized radio links, or fiber optic links. Most internet service providers use PPP for customers' dial-up access to the Internet. An encapsulated form of PPP, called PPP over Ethernet, or PPPoE, is commonly used in a similar role with Digital Subscriber Line Internet service.
