Great! I'm glad we could help you work it out.
To summarize, then, the setup of the iptables rules (especially regarding
the forwards and nat rules) should use ppp0 rather than the eth1 (which is
the actual lan interface card).
By using ppp0 rather than eth1 the traffic is now properly forwarded from
the lan to the internet and back.
