I am new to this stuff but it seems to me that somehow I have to tell pppd that it has to use my Ethernet card and not a serial device. That is, I need the pppd output to go into my Ethernet "network" (which is only composed from my machine and the router), and not to a modem or other low speed

It might help if you could add more information about what it is exactly you're trying to do. You can run PPP over the internet and I'd be happy to send you pre-hack netcat which will help you do this. I'm not sure the tool I have built though matches what you're trying to do. Tell me more. sha
