My Huawei E5172 unlocked sim based, connected teleport (RJ11) with telephone. Telephone not getting dial tone. My internet connection comes from SIM (voice calls, video calls, Internet).
 
The dial tone itself does not mean anything the analog phone connection is being simulated with VoIP. You could get a dial tone and it still not actually be able to make calls. I have not used this router but it is common to have to configure or at least turn on the SIP function. I do not know if this is a function your ISP includes or if you must use a external SIP provider. You generally need some kind of userid and password, some use the phone number as your id. It varies greatly between ISP so this may be a question best answered by your ISP.
