Hi,
I use pppconfig to setup my dial up.

Open a terminal and type   sudo pppconfig    enter password and fill in.
Leave "provider" alone, and when finished  in terminal type   pon 
Type in terminal   poff to disconnect.
External usb modems I have tried are (usually) found at ttyACM0 
if modem isn't auto-detected and you need to set it manually.
Hope this helps.
Take Care
Winton
