Make sure you have everything right in your /etc/ppp.chatscript file.
If you examine /var/log/messages, look for lines like the following:
Jan 4 22:31:55 goober chat[2710]: CONNECT 57600^M
Jan 4 22:31:57 goober chat[2710]: ^M
Jan 4 22:31:57 goober chat[2710]: host -- got it
Jan 4 22:31:57 goober chat[2710]: send (ns^M)
Jan 4 22:31:57 goober chat[2710]: expect (ogin)

Jan 4 22:31:58 goober chat[2710]: send (??????)
Jan 4 22:31:58 goober pppd[2709]: Serial connection established.
Jan 4 22:31:59 goober pppd[2709]: Using interface ppp0
Jan 4 22:31:59 goober pppd[2709]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyS1
Jan 4 22:32:02 goober pppd[2709]: local IP address 195.70.129.138
Jan 4 22:32:02 goober pppd[2709]: remote IP address 195.70.130.20
Obviously, these are from a functioning system. But the equivalent
lines on yours should help you track down the cause of the problem.
