Hello, 

I have quite the same situation. I have only lo0 at home.


I use the pppd interface (not tun) this way:
1) /etc/ppp/options ->	modem
			crtscts
			mtu 296
2) use the chat program to handle the script to connect to the ppp server
3) to start: /usr/sbin/pppd passive connect xxx /dev/cuaa1 38400
	where xxx is the chat program 
4) the chat script must be executable and has the form:
	#!/bin/sh
	chat "" AT OK "ATD555-9873" CONNECT "ogin:" xxx "word:" password 
'$' ppp
