    Hi,

    definitely you need to add following ip to /etc/ppp/options.
    Code:
    :192.168.0.254
    If you still facing some problems you can try to add these options too.

    Code:
    novj
    lcp-echo-failure 0
    lcp-echo-interval 0
    If you are using wvdial, sometimes you need to add to /etc/wvdial.conf

    Code:
    Carrier Check = no
    Stupid Mode = yes
    Read more about ppp-deamon here:

    PPPD( manual page

    If nothing helps post your wvdial.conf here please.
