Default Internet -Connecting Problem -Fedora Core3


Hello friends,
I have US robotics external modem 56k.
When i configured my modem i got an error "Unable to open modem"
then i created a link to /dev/ttyS0 and named the link as /dev/modem
Now i am able to connect to net,
when the message in dialer comes "Logging on to network",
my computer hangs and says "pppd expired"
and dialer closes.

Can anyone help me out.
Thanks in advance
karthik
