They don't. They simply use PAP all the time - and practically
all ISP's comply - particularly those using radius
authentication with their dial in racks ( and that's the norm
today....). In case of the Max6000 you even have trouble doing
terminal authentication.

Thus, stupidly using PAP all the time normally puts you in
business. It's faster, too.

If I try responding anything at the "login:" prompt at
OberlandNet, I am simply kicked out. So I don't and start PAP
immediately after having a modem connection.
