It looks like your routes are misconfigured. Your default route in
this case should point to the other end of this link -- 99.164.169.50
as you've shown -- and not to one of your own local addresses. By
using a local address, you've basically told the kernel to drop all
your packets, and it's just doing what you've asked it to do.
As another poster suggested, you should use the "defaultroute" option
instead of this ip-up hackery. If you really do need all of this
complex manual configuration in the ip-up script, then consider using
the $IPREMOTE environment variable or $5 in /etc/ppp/ip-up. (I'm not
sure how Linux handles the command line arguments for that script, but
pppd itself passes the remote address as $5 when it invokes
/etc/ppp/ip-up.)
