There's a howto document at 
<http://www.macbsd.com/macbsd/howto/pppnat/>.  While it was written 
for the mac68k port I used it on port-i386 and didn't see anything 
non-obvious that was specific to the port.  No special packages 
needed and it works as well as the MacOS ppp implementation.  (That 
is the ISP is just as flaky with the connection software they claim 
to support.)

As to the tty device:  use the one you don't have a mouse connected to.
