They are asking for PAP authentication here which you reject. They are not
happy with that so they terminate the PPP connection.

[snipped working trace]

The working trace does not request PAP authentication so I assume you are using
a scripted login. Try configuring /etc/ppp/pap-secrets with the same login
and password as you are using for the scripted login. Windows will certainly
do this so the ISP modem rack will appear to be working fine to any Windows
user.
