Hello

NetBSD_STABLE 1.6.2/i386
Alcatel Speedtouch 330 USB modem on ugen0, using tun0

I want to connect to an ISP using PPPoA. The modem has been set up using
latest "net/userppp*" and "net/speedtouch*" packages and is
"synchronized" and "up" according to /var/log/messages output. I have
two nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf but I'm not sure what else I need to
set up. Do I need to put my assigned static IP address somewhere and do
I need to set a default route? Anything else?

ifconfig tun0 says: ...  <POINTTOPOINT> 1500 mtu

Please let me know if other information is rquired. TIA
