Have you tried minicomm or some other terminal program.
Use them to test the modem<->PC connection. Then debug
the chat scripts for ppp/slip connections.

Another good test for the modem, is
  echo "ATDT 1234" >/dev/ttyS1
and see if it tries to dial.
ttyS1 is for COM1

Look at the setserial program to configure
the serial port too.
