I've seen this as well, but I don't believe that message is what is causing the
modem hangup. If I remember correctly, the setup I'm using (with a TS-GSM1 on a
TS-7260) shows the "kernel does not support PPP filtering" message as a
warning, but it still successfully connects. I would guess something else is
wrong -- maybe the wrong APN or username? Interesting, though, since it does
say PAP authentication succeeded.
The one time I saw this, it was because I had LCP echo requests turned on but
the provider (AT&T) wasn't responding to them so pppd was disconnecting itself,
thinking the connection was lost. I turned them off in ppp.conf by commenting
out the lcp-echo-interval and lcp-echo-failure options in /etc/ppp/options.
However, it's impossible to know for sure what's going on unless you turn on
all the pppd debugging options to see exactly what is getting sent and received
by the modem. I can't remember exactly how to do this off the top of my head,
but make sure you have the debug option enabled in the ppp options and make
sure nolog is commented out. Then, start syslogd (you may have to swap
/etc/syslog.conf and /etc/syslog.conf-debian first, so things actually get
logged--the default syslog.conf doesn't do anything in order to reduce wear on
your CF/SD/whatever card), then try to open the ppp connection (ifup ppp0).
Hopefully one of the log files in /var/log will be populated with all kinds of
interesting ppp information. It might give a hint as to why the connection is
dropping.
