More information is required if we are to be able to help you,
specifically (at the bare minimum):

1) Which version of FreeBSD are you using?
2) How are you telling the machine to dial?
3) Have you been able to get a connection directly to the modem?
4) What programs have you tried and which ones are you using?
5) Have you done this before or is this the first attempt?
6) What docs have you read and either don't understand or need more help
with?
7) Is the modem on, plugged in correctly, in the correct serial port?
8) What is the contents of your configuration files? (Have you edited
any configuration files? If so, which ones?)
9)
...
...
infinity)

Got the idea?

Further reading for you if you've not done this before:

After you've read this you may not have any questions left :) but you
might need to do a lot more reading to understand what it's saying...
