Hi,
You've basicly got two choices here. The first is to write enough
of a PPP parser to actually understand the PPP frames and wrap/unwrap
them as they arrive. The second (and arguably cleaner) approach would
be to configure the network settings to use SLIP instead of PPP.
SLIP is a very simple protocol, it's essentially raw IP frames
sent down a serial connection.
Cheers,
Bruce.
