Be simple when starting.

You need only one nas<x> interface.

modprobe br2684
br2684ctl -b -c 0 -a 0.8.48
sleep 3
ifconfig nas0 up

This code should be enought. I would prefer to wait a bit before to set the
interface up, I had some problems I don't remember with no sleep.

Then you should be able to start pppd
