Thanks for the support,
I have finaly solved the problem.
below is the solution.
---------------------------
How to:

Subject Maxon/CMoTech CDMA Modem
Model: MM 5500C
Seller Telstra Australia.

Description:
The device is  a 3G pccard that allows data over the CDMA EVO network. 
Portable Internet.

This device reports as being on the USB Bus and is hidden in a single shell. 
See usbdevs ..

This device is not currently supported in FreeBSD.
To add support add the following to 
/src/sys/dev/usb/usbdevs 
vendor CMOTECH		0x16d8	CMOTECH CO., LTD.
product	CMOTECH CDMA		0x5523	CMOTECH CDMA Technologies USB modem

------------------------
/src/sys/dev/usb/usb_quirks.c

{ USB_VENDOR_CMOTECH, USB_PRODUCT_CMOTECH_CDMA,
	ANY, {UQ_ASSUME_CM_OVER_DATA}},

-----------------------
Rebuild the kernel and dependency's.
Note:  The device has to be run on a DOS Box using the supplied software from 
Telstra before using it with FreeBSD.
You also have to load ucom and umodem, these must be done at boot, either 
from /boot/defalts/* or in the kernel.

The above is not my own work, I was able to extract the information from the 
mail archive.
Parts of this fix are from OpenBSD notably the ppp script.

--------------------------------

ppp.conf

# Config file for Telstra/ Maxon  CMOTECH MM5500C

	set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command


evdo:
