Have you tried opening linuxconf in x and using the networking section to
initialize the connection.  The section I refer to is where it lists the
ppp0, once it is configured.  After you click on the ppp0 it asks if you
want to make a connection, and you click on yes.  Then open your browser.
You have to turn off the connection after you are done.

I am a linux newby, but this worked for me, and I had the same problem with
minicom.
