  I did the "~p" and iijppp did go into packet mode.  According to the 
capitolized "PPP xx xxxx>" line, it did go into packet mode and for all 
intents and purposes, it seemed to be working.  But I could do nothing 
afterwards.  After 3 minutes, iijppp would logout and disconnect the 
modem from the line.

  That's a handy feature, indeed!  When I regain my sanity from my PPP 
ordeal, I'll have to look into iijppp again. :)
