Yes, I'm sure since I used pppoe before.

No, I tried to ping yahoo's IP address but this does not work either. First
I get no response and after some time a timeout is issued. Some more
information:

My /etc/resolv.conf:
nameserver 127.0.0.1

route -n:
84.60.0.1 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0
192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0


And ifconfig ppp0:

ppp0 Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol
inet addr:84.60.30.236 P-t-P:84.60.0.1 Mask:255.255.255.255

Any ideas what's wrong?

Thank you.
