Why would you need routing information if they are on the same subnet?
(unless I'm missing something, which I probably am.)

I think you need to provide some more information 1st.

Can the FreeBSD machine ping it's own IP?
Can the MAC ping it's own IP?

Can the FreeBSD and MAC ping each other?

Does the ppp work on the BSD machine?  Can you access the internet?

Is the FreeBSD machine set as the Gateway on the MAC?

Are you using ppp -alias?
