Huh?

Well, that should either be
route add -net default gw your_ppp_peer_ip dev ppp0
or
route add -net default netmask 255.255.255.255 dev ppp0
> your_allotted_IP can be found by running the command 'ifconfig ppp0'.
True, but the two IP addresses of the ppp link is also passed to the ip-up
script as parameters 4 and 5 respectively. You can refer to them as $4 and $5
in the script.
Also, pass the option defaultroute to pppd to achieve the same result.
