Configuring the Cellular Connection

To establish a cellular data link, you must configure and initiate a PPP connection. Sample options, files, and chat
scripts are provided in the ppp peers directory /etc/ppp/peers. Anything specific to the network or connection
should be placed in one of these files. Global options should be placed in /etc/ppp/options.
There are two chat scripts, /etc/ppp/peers/lna3_chat_non_vz and /etc/ppp/peers/lna3_chat_vz. These are selected
by a link, /etc/ppp/peers/lna3_chat.
