I had the same problem, turns out it is a pppd setting problem. when you run
pppd you must have user username in the options. Just add 'user username' to
/etc/ppp/options. Hope this helps,
If you know why this is needed, please e-mail. (maybe a bug in pppd??)

The software I bought said it required Windows '95 or better, so I installed it on
Linux!
