This could well be the problem.  The combination here is
Pipe 50 to Pipe 50 leased line.  Settings on both sides
are:  Switch Type=NET 3, Chan Usage=Super Dig 128,
Encaps=MPP.  We haven't fiddled with the settings yet since
it's not (yet) our baby...not that we're looking forward to
inheriting the service agreement :-) for this particular
setup, but we still want to get a feel as to why its
happening.

Have you, by any chance, received any feedback from Ascend
as to when the problem you reported would be fixed?
