 Thank you all greatly for any help.

Here's the ppp(8) configuration that I use for Telus Mobility (I have a
Kyocera KPC650 PCMCIA card, which is also umsm(4)):

[ snip ]

I can't speak from personal experience because I run a local name server
on that machine and have 127.0.0.1 in its /etc/resolv.conf, but look up
the enable dns and resolv commands in the ppp(8) manual page.  Some
combination of those should be able to get ppp automatically updating
/etc/resolv.conf when you connect.

Matt.

P.S.  It was pointed out to me in private mail that I had an error in my
first reply.  The Kyocera KPC650 is a CardBus, not PCMCIA, card.

 Thank you all greatly for any help.

Some hints:

1. You can use cu -l ttyU0 to communicate with the device, this is
useful for debugging/trying what works. Note that the 'AT' stuff is
called the Hayes command set and quite Googleable.
2. Find out how to see the messages from your device. If you use
pppd(8), call chat with the -V option and look at
/etc/ppp/connect-errors; I'm sure ppp(8), which you're using, has
similar options.
3. The following configuration (somewhat) Works For Me with XS4ALL in
the Netherlands, using a HUAWEI E180. (For anyone finding this via
Google: This is *not* XS4ALL's mobile internet, which uses a more modern
device; this is the temporary mobile internet they provide you when you
request an ADSL connection.) You may be able to use it as a basis.

If your device doesn't have a pin set, you may need to remove everything
between AT+CPIN? and +CPIN\sREADY-AT+CPIN=-OK (inclusive).

Joachim

P.S. Please send all information inline next time - it's small, but
makes it possible to answer your questions e.g. on the train.

/etc/ppp/peers/xs4all:

# The next part configures the device: 3 means use whatever is available,

# FInally, we wait a bit. If we don't, everything *appears* to work, but we get
