You can add routes to the sites you want to apt-get from to the kernel routing table with: route add -host ftp.debian.org ppp0 route add -host ftp.netgod.net ppp0 to force connections to those sites through ppp. And/Or do things similar to eth0. But you can not make all connections on a terminal go through a specific interface..
