[Pratt, Benjamin E.]

To check to see if it is a DNS issue you might want to try pinging
google.com.  If that does work your DNS is fine.  If it doesn't work try
pinging 216.239.37.99 (Google's IP address) for a reply.  If that works
it's a DNS issue, if it doesn't it's a networking issue.

Good luck,

Ben

It sounds like a dns issue. Take a look at your /etc/ppp/ppp.conf
Once you edit that file, you can invoke it by shell# ppp -ddial papchap
If you need more assistance please let me know.
