I think the reason why it doesn't work is that ppp waits for all commands in ppp.linkup to complete before it actually transfer data over tun0. Since ppp waits for wget and wget wants to send data over tun0 there is some sort of dead-lock. I solved the issue by running fetch (or wget in your case) in the background (replace "!" with "!bg").
