Re: modem and default gw
Are you saying that when not using your modem, you have a route to the internet via the NIC? Why use the modem then. If not, why set a default gateway on the NIC in the first place? The answer for your questions is: because I'm using a notebook and, when I am in my office I can use the lan for the Internet, but when I am at home I must connect to the itnernet via modem.

Re: modem and default gw
For security reasons, pppd does not change the default gateway if you already have a default gateway (at least if you use the noauth option, as far as I know). You need to explicitely allow this using the replacedefaultroute option in /etc/ppp/peers/kppp or /etc/ppp/options. Thank you very much for you suggestion. I'll try it.
