"eznet --help" says:
-----------------------------------------------------
expectN = Nth extra expect string (N between 1 and 9)

Yes, I saw that.  It dies while waiting for the first prompt.  
Whether that prompt is expect0 or expect1, I do not know.

I don't know.  I have used three ISPs with BasicLinux -- two
of them used PAP/CHAP and one used a two-prompt login script
(username, password).  eznet was able to connect to all of them 
without the need to put expect/reply lines in eznet.config.
Your ISP apparently requires a third reponse (shell) so you 
will need to specify at least one expect/reply.  

Since I have never used expect/reply lines personally, I can
provide no specific advice on how to do it.  I suggest you
experiment.
