you mean you can connect? can you ping their gateway ip.
domain resolution is done via dns. You need to add the dns server address

# this was my old pacbell sbc account dynamic ip nunber
# my nic card is ed0
pacbell:
set log Phase tun command
set ifaddr 10.10.0.1/0 10.10.0.2/0
set timeout 0
# my nic card is ed0
set device PPPoE:ed0
set authname myaccount@sbcglobal.net
set authkey mypass
set dial
set login
add default HISADDR
# nowadays i have static numbers hence this works

21.5.3 Running ppp

# ppp -ddial name_of_service_provider

ppp -ddial speakeasy
