Here is what I found.Please try and see.

I use wvdial instead of the official client for connecting to the Net using the FWP. I have tried to use kppp for this purpose, and have got very little success. The rest of this section explains how to connect using wvdial.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 I used stty /dev/ttyS0 115200 (replace the port with the one you are using) to set the speed of the port to be used. You might not need it.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In /etc/ppp/options I have:

    lock
    asyncmap 0
    crtscts
    modem
    defaultroute
    usepeerdns
    name reliance
    noauth
    mtu 264
    debug
   
In /etc/ppp/pap-secrets I have:

     "XXXXXXXXXX"  reliance  "XXXXXXXXXX"
   
Where XXXXXXXXXX is my phone number in the form STD-code + phonenumber. e.g. a Delhi(STD code 011) phone number YYYYYYYY, should have 11YYYYYYYY in the place of XXXXXXXXXX above.

In /etc/wvdial.conf I have:

    [Dialer Defaults]
    Modem = /dev/ttyS0
    Baud = 115200
    Init1 = AT+crm=1;$LGPKT=3
    ISDN = 0
    Modem Type = Analog Modem
    Phone = #777
    Username = XXXXXXXXXX
    Password = XXXXXXXXXX
    Stupid Mode = 1
   
Remember to use the phone number in the format explaned earlier in place of XXXXXXXXXX in the file given above.
Run wvdial as root to connect to the net, or alternatively give sudo permission to specific users to run wvdial using their own accounts.
