Are you logging in manually or using CHAP/PAP. If it is the former, you may
have edit your chat script to login and exit rather than waiting to read
more data. You could figure our what the sequence is by logging in to your
ISP with minicom or other terminal program. If it is the former, you
probably have too many send/expect sequences in your chat script.

It would help if you could enable report mode in chat and send the output.
Makes it easier to solve the problem.

I have been using diald(last 3 or 4 versions) on a Redhat 5.0 derivative
for years now. Given, however, that the 2.0.xx series requires some diald
tweaking to install, it may be best for those with less, err, experience to
either downgrade diald or upgrade their kernels. Geez that sounds like
almost like microsoft-speak.
