There is no way that the external modem does not work irrespective of the make which dialer do you use? Use wvdial and give a command wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
see what is the output on the screen. wvdial finds a link to the modem even if its on ttsy0/1 In case of problem post the output of the above command.
