I'll show you what I have in my PPP configuration. It has been some
time since I used this, though, so no guarantees.

You should know that I'm running on Debian and used pppconfig to set
this up.

--- start /etc/ppp/peers/sprintpcs ---
# This optionfile was generated by pppconfig 2.0.10.
#

hide-password
noauth
connect "/usr/sbin/chat -v -f /etc/chatscripts/sprintpcs"
debug

user hexmode@sprintpcs.net
remotename sprintpcs
ipparam sprintpcs

usepeerdns
--- end /etc/ppp/peers/sprintpcs ---

--- start /etc/chatscripts/sprintpcs
# This chatfile was generated by pppconfig 2.0.10.
# Please do not delete any of the comments. Pppconfig needs them.

# ispconnect

# end of pppconfig stuff
--- end /etc/chatscripts/sprintpcs ---

Note that the above file has a single line beginning at "ABORT" and
ending at "DELAYED".

Anyway, last time I used this, I just did "pon sprintpcs" and it worked.
  IIRC, I last used this about eight months ago.

You'll need a cable to connect your phone to your USB port. And,
you'll need to make sure that the above ttyACM device is correct.

Mark.
