I installed the ntop package to have a closer look at the network traffic. It 
seems that within a few seconds several hundred megabytes are sent to the 
DNS-server, with which my pc is connected, and the DNS server is sending this 
packages back. According to a comment in
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6133370
this is due to (citing):
"pppd was altering the routing table and GRE packets supposed to carry the ppp 
traffic through wlan0 interface were actually being directed to ppp0 interface, 
which created an infinite loop."
