The remote boots you off 2 seconds after it finishes bringing up ppp all
the way. Perhaps you've disabled too much now?

That must be a dummy value... but I think its supposed to be all 0s if you
are asking for a valid ip.

Does that look like a valid IP from your provider?

The remote asked that you go away so you failed some sort of check at
something beyond the ppp layer.
