Yup, a problem:  This mail belongs on "questions", not "freebsd-isp".

I'm guessing you should also make sure /etc/host.conf looks like this:
hosts
bind
and put all the FQDNs from /etc/ppp/ppp.conf into /etc/hosts.  Then it
won't try to look them up (and stall waiting to timeout UDP traffic to
a nameserver) when ppp runs.
