I add this line
alias ppp-compress-18 ppp_mppe
to the /etc/modules.d/ppp file.

# modules-update

# modprobe ppp-compress-18
FATAL: Module ppp_compress_18 not found.

# modprobe ppp_mppe
$ lsmod

How to fix this "Module ppp_compress_18 not found" problem?

Is that module actually compiled into your kernel? Check your kernel config and check also in /lib/modules/<kernel-version>/ for that module if it exists.
