Hello!

Everithink in your configurations looks just fine. But if you want to
traceroute you should say somethink like this " traceroute -i ppp0 " The
default interface in your computer is stil eth0. Where did you get it I don't
know but you still have it. Check in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts and delete
ifcfg-eth0 if you don't need it.

Hope it helps!
