What do you see when you try to "log in" using minicom? The question here
is are you sure that the dialer is set up correctly. There are two main
ways of connecting to a remote machine using Linux:
- one that presents the "Username/Password" prompts first - these need to
be set up in the chat script.
- one that goes straight into ppp mode - this needs to be set up in
/etc/ppp (options, chap-secrets, pap-secrets as desired).
If you try to mix the two methods you will have big problems... BTW, this
assumes that your modem actually connects properly in the first place.
