Bug Description
Binary package hint: kppp
After a PPP connection is established, my prior default gateway is still active. Therefore, it's impossible to use the newly established PPP connection before one does a:
$ sudo route del default gw nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn
$ sudo route add default gw zzz.zzz.zzz.zzz
where zzz.zzz.zzz.zzz is the P-t-P IP address reported by
$sudo /sbin/ifconfig ppp0
kppp, since it is run as root anyway, and it provides the option to "assign the default route to this gateway", should do just that.
