If you want to connect to the net through your company via ppp, then 
the default route must be removed from /etc/rc.conf as originally 
advised (I assumed from your subsequent mail that you had two modems, 
one ->net and one ->company).  If your setup allows access to the 
company and not the 'net via the company, then the company isn't 
forwarding/returning the packets.  You'll have to debug things at 
that end (probably using tcpdump).
