I did a little packet analsis and the packets are igmp packets send they
are sent every minute. Any way to get them blocked or no to trigger pppd?

22:11:59.951709 192.168.254.1 > 224.0.0.13: ip-proto-103 10 [tos 0xc0]
[ttl 1]
22:12:01.471709 192.168.254.1 > 224.0.0.1: igmp query [tos 0xc0] [ttl 1]
