Hi,

I had this exact same problem and tracked it down to IPv6.  Exactly what
the issue was with IPv6 I don't know, but as I didn't need it I just
turned it off in the kernel and that solved the problem.

I should get around to submitting a pr but I haven't had a great deal of
time... besides it would be good to actually understand why ipv6 interacts
with ppp like this on a standard setup.
