Hi.
I would recommend putting all options of the above file in one line.
(If you examine pon script you will see why. It is not strictly necessary
though.)

Great! You *did* get ppp connection! Your problem is that you have to set up
your routing table properly in /etc/ppp/ip-up (on connection) and
/etc/ppp/ip-down (on disconnect) using "route". And remove defaultroute option
from /etc/ppp.options_out - you already have defaultroute to your eth0
interface.
