It seems to me that your connection attempts are stumbling at the 
authentication step.

Contact your ISP and ask what PPP (point to point protocol) authentication 
they use.

They should tell you one of either PAP, CHAP, or script.

If you get a helpdesk drone who only knows how to recite scripts about 
configuring windows, ask for your query to be escalated to a higher support 
level.
