Can you connect OK if you do this:

ppp
term
atdt4108841220

This should dial then prompt you for your username and password, then show
you're connected by changing prompt to PPP. If you only get partial caps
in your prompt, let the list know. 

If you can connect this way, there's a problem with the chat script; if
you can't, the problem lies elsewhere.

HTH,

Dru
