Can anybody tell me what is the purpose of LCP Extensions and should we use
them in dial-up or not?

Thankx!

Apparently it depends on your ISP.
This is what I found with a little searching on http://www.google.com/ and http://whatis.techtarget.com/

I see you already got very good information.

What it may boil down to is that you first enable these
extensions and see if it works. If it doesn't, try if disabling
them solves the problem.

This may be quicker than asking your ISP (and possibly getting
the wrong answer).
