Thanks to those who responded to my previous question regarding the use of
a PC Card.  I am now using an external modem and can successfully connect
to my internet service provider using user ppp.

However, I am not sure how to use applications like ping, ftp and telnet
once I am connected.

When at the "PPP on hostname>" after connecting to the ISP, and type something
like "shell ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" I get a response of "No route to host".

I configured my system as set out in the FAQ.  What am I doing wrong.
Please help.
