The connect command needs to be enclosed in single quote marks, not
double quotes.  Here is my connect command for example:

connect '/usr/sbin/chat -f /usr/local/bin/radiks.chat'

In my opinion it is better to put the expect/send pairs into a file for
ease of maintenance.  Using my file as an example, you might want to
construct a file as follows:

"" ATDT8617915 \
CONNECT ""

That says to expect nothing and send your dial command, then expect
CONNECT and send nothing.  I'm also not sure you need the double quotes
around the name in your user parameter.  In /etc/resolv.conf you might
want to add a search line such as
search microtec.net

I hope this helps some.
