Additionaly, check your modem initialization string. It is VERY sensitive,
ad any typo or extra characters may interfere. Check out ppp.conf.sample
(/etc/ppp)

One more thing:

call ppp using


ppp -alias impulse

You may also want to check for your login script. It seems it is not
logging in.

After calling ppp the sequence would be:

ppp ON brain> dial
Dial attempt 1 of 10
Phone: 2345678
dial OK!
login OK!
ppp ON brain> Packet mode.
ppp ON brain>
PPP ON brain>

After "login ok", the "Packet mode" is automatic. Next you will receive 2
empty prompts, which is also automatic.

Voila ! you're connected.
