Thanks for the quick reply.
"Automatically obtain IP address settings with:" was set to dialup. I
tried changing it first to bootp and then to dhcp and rebooting each
time. However I still have a no-browse issue after booting. But if I
Deactivate and again Active ppp0, I am able to browse.

In the Advanced tab, "Allow dial on demand" and "Restart if connection
dies" were unchecked. I checked them one at a time and rebooting each
time, but I didn't have any luck.

Please Help.
