If it has a MAC address then i sounds more like an ethernet than PPP. Do you need ARP? Do you pass ethernet frames or IP packets? If your interface uses raw IP packets then it will plug in differently than if it uses ethernet frames. Basicaly, you want to take a look at the ethernet infrastructure in packages/io/eth/current/src/net/eth_drv.c which goes between the ethernet drivers and the bottom of the stack, and packages/net/ppp and look at how it interfaces to the stack. I also think you will need to spend some time getting familiar with the network stack.
