Try running minicom, to get direct modem control. You can find a Hayes modem command set either in your modem documentation, from the manufacturer's website, or by searching Google. Tends to be largely standardized these days. Try 'ATDP <number>', where number is something you can dial without incurring large connection costs. It's possible that some modems may not support pulse dialing. This should help etablish whether or not yours can. -- Karsten M.
