I use GSM module Telit GL865 in UART communication with STM32F7 MCU and softwares STM32CubeMX, Keil.
When I send AT commands over UART to GSM module as below, I get an IP address by the internal stack of the GSM module and ping it successfully:
AT
AT&K0
AT#SCFG=3,1,300,600,300,10
AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","mgbs","0.0.0.0",0,0
AT+CGSN
AT#ICMP=2
AT#GPPPCFG="000.000.000.000",25,1
AT#GPPPCFGEXT=0
ATDT*99#
CONNECT
However, when I start a PPPoS session, I cannot ping the IP which was successfully established over PPP.
The IP, gateway and netmask addresses that are established over PPP stack are as follows:
IP = 5.26.61.173
Gateway = 192.168.202.0
Netmask = 255.255.255.255
The first problematic thing I viewed is the Netmask address; however, LwIP PPPoS establishes this.
Secondly, after the establishment above, MCU and GSM module starts to send periodic data to each other as "~y " with length 49 and 53 respectively.
That means my debugging of printf( ) cannot show me all of the periodic data.
Thirdly, the most important, when I ping the IP of GSM above, the periodic data "~y " with length 68, is sent much more in time between MCU and GSM, means that pinging triggers the communication between GSM and MCU but no response back.
I use interrupt based UART transceiving which starts to fill the received buffer and put it into pppos_input_tcpip(ppp, recBuffer, recIndex) unless new data comes in 10ms.

Data communication between GSM and STM32 seems OK to me(!) and triggered with ping request; however, no ping response..
In my opinion, problem may be about the connection between ppp_netif and ppp_netif(ppp), netmask or ping implementation of the LwIP stack...
