There is a handbook and a FAQ on your system, in /usr/share/doc.
Look for a ppp.conf example, in /usr/share/exemples/ppp/ppp.conf.sample,
clip this to your need, phonenumber, passwd etc, mv it to
/etc/ppp/ppp.conf . Well, a lot to do...

There is a PPP primer and a newbies text in www.freebsd.org, usefull.
And a usenet newsgroup,

H.
