Ah ok, that makes sense then.

Unless you want to hack ppp scripts yourself and start it from the
command line, gnome-ppp is probably what you are after.  Test the modem
can dial up to an ISP here, even you don't have an account.  Try using
0198331337 (internode dialup) with a username of "invalid" and password
"test" or similar.
