Great tutorial.

I succeeded in getting everything to work - including seeing

Code:

ppp0      Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol  
          inet addr:97.5.254.66  P-t-P:66.174.33.69  Mask:255.255.255.255
          UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:4 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:13 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:3 
          RX bytes:294 (294.0 B)  TX bytes:797 (797.0 B)

via ifconfig but a simple ping google.com will always timeout. I run ifconfig eth1 down prior to establishing the point-to-point connection.

Any hints are greatly appreciated.

I have a pearl 8130 (verizon).
