GPRS connection

Hi, I have a problem when trying to connect me by GPRS with my laptop.
I run Mandrake cooker. All seems work, as you can see by the snapshots
below, but I cannot ping anything (neither dns, correctly setup in
resolv.conf) but my local address.
I have googled a lot, I found similar posts but nothing really useful for
solving my problem. Any idea?

Regards
Matteo

My gprs file, the situation does not change even uncommenting noipdefault
and ipcp-accept-local

If it's only ping that won't work then the ISP is very likely blocking
ping requests. One of the Microsoft maggot distributors used ping to
find hosts to try attacking, so a number of ISPs now block it.
