I could be wrong (my DSL isn't getting hooked up until next week), but I'm
pretty sure that the only place PPP is being used is 675<->USWest.  Your BSD
box should still be using plain TCP/IP to talk to the 675.

US West
   |  - PPP
  675
   |  - Normal ethernet
  BSD
   |  - Normal ethernet
  Hub
   |  - Normal ethernet
 Other

Oops...  Waitaminnit...  Just realized I answered the wrong question...

To tell your BSD box to send all traffic to the outside world through the
675, just use

route add -host (675's IP) dev ethN
route add default gw (675's IP)

where ethN is the network card that's hooked up to the 675.
