C "Best guess" possibilities -- 1) wrong serial port 2) wrong speed. Recommend using a simple teminal program, like 'cu' or 'kermit', try connecting to each serial port, in succession, and see what happens when you type the following two lines: ATE1V1 ATI0 { that is 'AT', then a capital i, followed by a zero } The idea is to _first_ get 'basic communications' with the modem working, _then_ try the chat scipt, then get ppp woking. Trying to debug -everything- at the same time is a guaanteed recipie for frustation -- as you're finding out. One of your prior boot logs showed that _at_that_point_ the O/S was *NOT* recognizing the modem. Log lines showed "unknown device 0x140b". I presume you have -that- resolved.
