the loopback message usually means that you're not connecting to anywhere
that can respond. from the log messages you included, i'd say that you're not
getting a ppp connection on the other end. your isp may have different
numbers for different modem speed connections, or you may need to insert a
pause before sending your user/pass in order to get a response prior to
logging on at the other end.
