Since the modem is already detected and assuming that you did not remark ou= t the lines for the COM ports in the kernel and assuming that you want to u= se the modem with ppp, then all you need is to tell ppp that the device is /dev/cu= aa3, i.e. set device /dev/cuaa3 I don't think you need to do anything else unless you are already getting s= ome errors which you haven't told us about.
