Your problem is that you aren't defining a gateway address.
i've tried "route add default gw 172.21.0.1 ppp0", after which the routing table looks thus.

Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface
172.21.0.1      0.0.0.0         255.255.255.255 UH        0 0          0  ppp0
192.168.0.0     0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U         0 0          0  eth0
0.0.0.0         172.21.0.1      0.0.0.0         UG        0 0          0  ppp0
0.0.0.0         0.0.0.0         0.0.0.0         U         0 0          0  ppp0

but i still can't ping 172.21.0.1 from a client.

Because you added a new line to the routing table. It needs to modify the Iface 172.21.0.1. Preferably when you actually create the link in wvdial.
