Providing advanced pppd option

[Shakthi Prasad GS <shakthi gs87 gmail com>]

Hi all,

I was trying connect to internet via samsung usb modem. But I could do
the same using pon poff script. 
So I checkout NM source files and found that NM is not passing all the
argument which my pon script passing. After a quick hack I could manage
NM working with my phone. (Of course I even had problem with
ModemManager)

I just added "receive-all" option to pppd command line. It worked. 
But man pppd says "This  option should only be needed if the peer is
buggy."

I request to provide a way to add additional pppd options to support my
connection. 

-Thanks
