If anyone has this problem:
ppp works fine unless/until you add an ethernet card. Then ppp
will connect, but you can't talk to anything out in the world...
Look at the lines in /var/log/messages file, if you don't have other
errors for ppp and it looks like it connects fine, but ppp just won't
talk.
Do an "ifconfig" on the console and look at the ppp0 section for the
"net addr" part while your ppp connection is up. If it lists your eth0
card
address, you might have this problem.
Try adding these options to /etc/ppp/options file
noipdefault
ipcp-accept-local
ipcp-accept-remote
I have been trying for weeks to get this to work. There are others
in message boards with the same problem and no solution. This
worked for me.
