Here's a hint for the serial devices:

/dev/cuaa0 = COM1
/dev/cuaa1 = COM2

You'll have to check the boot messages (run dmesg) to see if they were all
found.

Then use `set device /dev/device' in ppp to change the modem, then use
`term' to drop to terminal mode and ensure you can talk with the modem.

See http://www.freebsd.org/~brian/userppp.html for hints.
