 Sounds to me like Netscape is blocking trying to send a packet out to
the net.  Start it after ppp is up and running, and it should work
fine.

 With dynamicly assigned IP addresses, the reply-to-IP part of the
header in the first few packets is invalid, since it changes when the
pppd negotiates your local IP from the ISP, so a response never
returns.  Applications will hang until they time out when this
happens.
