What device (or, if you know it, chipset in the device) is it that you're trying to use? If you don't know, post the results of lsusb with the card plugged in.

Ultimately, it's going to require making sure the device is recognized then finding/creating the correct pppd "chat" script (to tell pppd how to "talk" to the modem)
