Sounds like a dodgy kernel build :-/
>From the ppp prompt, you can ``! echo hisaddr'' to see what HISADDR
is set to, and you can ``show route'' to see what's there. If ``add
0 0 hisaddr'' doesn't change the routing table and there's no default
already, you could try ``! route add default hisaddr''. If that
works, something's mis-built. If not, something more serious is
mis-built :-P
