Anyway, given that you have 2 NICs and now a Indicom connection (3 'net connections), you basically have a "def. route" routing problem.
I second that. In our excitement to get things working we forget about the existing eth0 that's the default route.
KM, simply run 'sudo route add default ppp0' after your usb modem's ppp0 is up. Once this is confirmed to be the solution, remove or comment the default gateway entry for eth0 in /etc/network/interfaces and reboot your machine.
Yes reboot, not restart networking services.
route del default gw 192.168.whatever . route add defalut gw <ip of ppp0>
