Outcome 1 above was what I got by running "pon dsl-provider" and ifconfig. I disabled IPV6 (Is that what you meant?) using the kernel boot option ipv6.disable=1. It didn't help.

Now instead of outcome 1 I have

eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 10:c3:7b:9d:d0:d2  
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:61 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:32 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 
          RX bytes:5301 (5.1 KiB)  TX bytes:1162 (1.1 KiB)

lo        Link encap:Local Loopback  
          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0
          UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:65536  Metric:1
          RX packets:714 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:714 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 
          RX bytes:57796 (56.4 KiB)  TX bytes:57796 (56.4 KiB)

ppp0      Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol  
          inet addr:218.102.185.241  P-t-P:203.218.189.254  Mask:255.255.255.255
          UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST  MTU:1492  Metric:1
          RX packets:17 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:3 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:3 
          RX bytes:1797 (1.7 KiB)  TX bytes:54 (54.0 B)

BTW I forgot to mention that I had rerun pppoeconf to set up the connection, which didn't help either.

Thanks!
