BSNL 3G LW273 LCP terminated by peer

pppd reports:

Aug 8 17:16:17 mobius pppd[21918]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyACM1
Aug 8 17:16:20 mobius pppd[21918]: CHAP authentication succeeded:
Congratulations!
Aug 8 17:16:20 mobius pppd[21918]: CHAP authentication succeeded
Aug 8 17:16:20 mobius pppd[21918]: LCP terminated by peer

Aug 8 17:16:20 mobius pppd[21918]: Connection terminated.
Aug 8 17:16:20 mobius pppd[21918]: Exit.

From the PPP negotiation (full log below), it appears that I am
receiving a termination request from the peer. The SIM gives me 3G data
access when inserted into a phone and the data card works when used
with the bundled windows dialer when plugged into a Windows XP box.

The device appears to be well supported and there are numerous reports
of success with Linux online. I am not very sure what it is that I am
doing wrong.

My wvdial configuration is:

[Dialer bsnl]
Phone = *99#
ISDN = 0
Modem = /dev/ttyACM1
Username = " "
Password = " "
Init3 = AT+CGDCONT=1,"ip","bsnlnet"
Stupid Mode = 1
New PPPD = yes

Thank krish for pointing me towards ppp options. Apart from the options
you have used, I have tried -ccp, -vj and fooling around with the lcp-*
options but nothing has helped.

I notice from your dialer script that you are not setting the APN which
I assumed is essential for the CellOne 3G service. Are you using the
Teracom LW273 data card ?

Also, I see /usr/lib/BSNL. Is this something that you've created ? I did
see some references to a deb that's on the device but none of the
configurations options (1, 2 or 3) give me access to the flash storage
on the device. If you have the deb that is on the device, could you
upload it someplace so that I could take a look at it ?
