Can you ping your gateway (10.64.64.64)?
Nope. But strangely right after establishing the connection the first
packet went through:
[bacuh@eee ~]$ ping ccc.de
PING ccc.de (213.73.89.122) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from www.ccc.de (213.73.89.122): icmp_seq=1 ttl=53 time=109 ms

I just connected with the netcfg scripts suggested by Robbie Smith and
had the same strange thing again. First ping comes back, the rest is
lost.

I now get some debugging messages when connecting. I cant find anything
useful but you might:

[bacuh@eee ~]$ sudo netcfg up ppp

FWIW: I once saw the phenomenon that the connection is lost in the very
moment I sent a ICMP packet. If this happens again, I will check the
logs.
