If it's something to do with PPP then probably putting the missing
settings in manually would sort it out.  More likely though is that you
have some incompatible pre- open transport stuff lurking in your system
folder.

I don't think your subnet mask and router settings aren't going to be very
important if you've got a PPP link going out and nowhere else to route to.
