In such cases, when i must set qdiscs on dynamic ppp or tun itnerfaces, i use
the ip-up script - since this script receives the remote ip address and the
name of device used for the link (and more parameters of course - read man
pppd), you can use it to set qdiscs (or do some other cool stuff) on specific
connection even if the device number is dynamic.
