=> The RAs are sent (at least according to the specs) but what you
might be seeing is that the RA is only sent to the phone and is not
forwarded to the laptop. So the laptop only sees a PPP connection. 

The situation might be different if instead of the phone you see 
a PCMCIA card inside the laptop. Or if you snoop the traffic arriving
at the phone itself. I.e. when the PPP part is removed.
