OK, quick step to find ou exactly where theproblem is:
1) ping router (0.2) from client
2) ping router's external IP address (ppp connectio? ping the ppp address)
3) ping an internet IP address from a client
4) I think the problem is before here.

Have you set up forwarding up on th router? IIRC youneed to echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward IIRC.
Also, check your ipchains FORWARD rule - is it on accept?

"Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)"
