"internet" entry will vary depending on telco settings?
For globe i use "internet.globe.com.ph", username=globe, password=globe

I use gnome-ppp to manage the connection to have the cutsey gui icon to
connect/disconnect. But the additional init strings you have to put in. The
special dialin number *99# or *99***3# works for most devices. I've used
several usb HSDPA dongles. Better google for your device's settings.
