I'm really confused now - to me, "ether" sounds like the barebone 
ethernet below IP, while a netmask is an IP property ...

You are right, I most likely still have a configuration error, although 
things do work after reboot. Unfortunately, the Vtun man pages are quite 
terse, so it is difficult for a beginner to assembe a good configuration 
to start with.

Like I said, I need the tunel to talk to a mobile behind the carrier's 
NAT, and as I have to pay for every tranferred byte, I'd prefer a 
solution with minimal traffic.

Can anyone point me to some more elaborate documentation or examples for 
Vtun, or suggest a working configuration with minimal (or even no?) idle 
traffic?

Thanks for helping,

Chris
