I've successfully used a laptop on pppconfig to set up a modem that uses standard AT commands but had a special cable to my cellular phone (Nokia).
If you have some kind of special hardware that's not supported, I can't speak to that... but any supported PCMCIA modem that uses standard AT commands that also has a cable connector to go to a cell phone should work. FWIW, cellular phone dialup over the AMPS cellular network (analog) will typically connect at 4800-9600 bps maximum... not fast, but it works for a quick pine session to check mail or a quick backdoor behind a firewall to check the health of a system. Good luck!
