Maybe not helpful.... I just got rid of a Motorola Q and had been using
it for PPP. I was using chatscripts to connect. I do not have my B8330
connected to PPP, but here are the scripts I had for the Q. I could just
start with "sudo pon ppp0" and tear down with sudo poff". There was a
gnome PPP control you can use to start and stop it. I never got it
working with network manager. With this configuration I was able to stay
on-line for hours without any drop. In the case of my service provider,
you just had to dial with #777. Authentication was at the MDN level, not
username and password. That was one of the problems with Network Manager
-- it expected to be able to transmit some kind of authentication data
and it's configuration wouldn't tolerate a configuration without it. My
SP was Verizon Wireless in the US if that helps.
