I had a similar problem with Kppp on a ThinkPad running Caldera 2.4.
The modem card was a Hayes with a Lucent chipset and none of the stock
settings in COAS worked. I got wvdial and it did the same thing you
describe. So, the fix:
I used the Init and Command sequences that wvdial found for the modem in
the COAS Modem config. It works fine now.
