Your side insists on doing PAP authentication (AUTHPROTO 0xc023) which
the remote end doesn't like.  Ask your ISP which authentication he
does expect.  I bet it's CHAP that you should be using.  I haven't
used it myself, but it seems you need the following in order to use
it:

...
 deny pap
 accept chap
 enable chap
