I agree with Mark. It looks like your box is not seeing the modem.
You could try "cu -l cuaa0" for com1, cuaa0 for com2.       
Then you can try some hayes command from the prompt.
Try "ATZ" (reset). "AT" to check OK response". 
Then try "ATDT12345678" for dialing (the 12345678 is to be replaced
with a phone number.)

Once you have the right port and you are talking to your modem, then
we can look at the ppp.log again.
