Need more information.

What does your log say?  

how far does the dialout get?  Does it find the modem?  what error
messages are you getting?

List what you do from start to finish.  You have just booted your
machine, you want to dial out.  What steps do you take?  If you are
using a script, what steps does *it* take?

When you say "ppp doesn;t dial out" do you mean ppp or do you
mean nothing will?
