So the device setup and the routes seem to fit.

That has not to say much. ping is not the almighty tool much people take
it for.
$ ping 196.25.1.11
PING 196.25.1.11 (196.25.1.11) 56(84) bytes of data.
From 196.43.11.41 icmp_seq=4 Packet filtered
From 196.43.11.41 icmp_seq=5 Packet filtered
You easily see, the filter ICMP.

www.cnn.com filters ICMP packages too. So a ping has to show you 100%
package loss.
From www.mit.edu I get ping replies. So try that target.

Check the output of "route", the default route has to point to the ppp
device.
Check the settings in /etc/resolv.conf to have valid nameserver entries
(take the DNS server from your ISP).
Check /etc/hosts file to have the line for name resolution for
localhost: 127.0.0.1.
