I've had almost the same problem with my ISP.  I solved the problem by
adding "set openmode active" in my PPP configuration file, such as:

------------ snip ----------------

interlinx:
 set login "TIMEOUT 5 name>-\\r\\r-name> XXXXXXXXX # XXXXXXXXXX Local> \"c
ppp 0.0.0.0\""
 set phone 565-0406
 set timeout 600
 set openmode active
 set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.1/0 255.255.255.0
 delete ALL
 add default HISADDR

----------- snip ------------------

Good luck,
