Looks like you do not get the "Login:" from your Provider. So your script
cannot go to the next step.
Try the following:
Start minicom:
minicom -s (-s gets you into setup mode for minicom. Set it up with
the correct /dev/ttySxxx and port speed)
Then exit from setup and you are getting a terminal window. From there you
dial your provider:
ATDT9579991
You should then get the login at some stage. Try to log in with user ID and
password. Start ppp at their end (you might have to ask them, if they do
not do it automatically).
Exit out of minicom wthout reset. Start ppp at your end with /usr/sbin/pppd
on the same session you used minicom on.
This should get you connected for sure.
If you take notes on what your provider is sending you before sending you
the login prompt you can use it to re-write your script. Some providers
might want you to qualify first, what type of service you want (Telnet,
ppp...) before they send the login prompt. Amend you script accordingly.
You can also find these details here:

Hope this helps.
