(Get the code!)
You could try and use pppconfig but it is having some of the same issues.
I tried it with both a static and dynamic IP setup and the static holds but does very little other than open a line. Both NetTools and the Network monitor show a ppp0 connection but other than a couple of exchanged packets it seems there is no real contact. Synaptic fails to make a contact for reload as well as apt-get. I tried to do the "apt-get update" to see if the repositories had changed and to no avail along with trying several stable gnome applets.
Using a US5610B modem which is functioning on all versions from Hoary through Hardy and seems to partially work with Intrepid Ibex but does not have the same solid connectivity.
The dynamic setup holds for a moment and then breaks contact.
This is written with Hardy on the 5610B modem.
