I'm making some assumptions first: You are capturing on Ethernet. On top
of that there's IP, on top of that there's GRE, on top of that threre's
PPP.
So what you need to do is just filter out all the GRE traffic, that
should get rid of all the PPP traffic as well.
The capture filter to get rid of GRE in this scenario is: 'ip protocol
!= 47'
Directly filtering out PPP with the ppp keyword would only be possible
if the link layer protocol was set to PPP, which wouldn't make much
sense to filter out in that case.

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
