Looks like you are using PPPoA over a modem bridge. How do you connect your 
modem to your PC? (ethernet, usb, ???)

Send the result of this command, if you want to keep your privacy, change the 
net address.

ifconfig
netstat -rn

Also, I don't understand, what is your problem?

I have a PPPoE connection and the ifconfig give somenthig like this

% ifconfig tun0
tun0: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet 216.136.204.21 --> 204.152.186.171 netmask 0xffffff00 
        Opened by PID 918
