Hi

Use  kill -HUP ppp to bring down ppp.  This will down the interface.  You
are trying to dial again over an interface that hasn't been shut down
correctly.  Also, do a route delete 0.0.0.0 and this will remove your
default route.  Make sure you remove the default route line in /etc/rc/conf.
You will need to set-up static routes to talk to your local LAN, assuming
you have routers in house.
