Description Sergey Y. Afonin 2004-05-03 11:22:32 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.2.1)
Installed from:    Unlisted Binary Package
OS:          Linux

kppp show in hint window some informations: "Connection", "Connected at" and "Time connected". "Connected at" contain connection speed, but I think what it must contain full connection string. For example, I have modem ZyXEL U-336. Connect string of modem is:
CONNECT <port speed>/<line speed>/<connect options>
Real string:
CONNECT 57600/V.34 28800/V42b/SREJ

"Connected at" display RS-232 speed, but all iformatios is interesting.

kppp show speed of connection between serial port and modem, but not speed of conection between my modem and ISP modem.

No, kppp show a part of CONNECT string. I use 115k for RS-232 port.

show full connection string in hint

It adds this feature. A patch have small bug: void ConWindow::timeclick() is
called when start only, and change of string in static window is applied after
restart.

This project is unfortunately no longer maintained.

If a new maintainer wants to step up and take care, the project is archived here:

https://invent.kde.org/unmaintained/kppp

You can just clone it in your private namespace on invent.kde.org and if you have started to work on it and fixed/implemented something get it reviewed and the project unarchived.

Sorry for the inconveniences.
