OK, i able to connect to modem (that's what ifconfig -a claims) but no 
connection really.

I think i  need to work on connetion script somehow:


ppp0: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
       inet 211.41.111.111 -> 10.64.64.64 netmask 0xffffff00
       inet6 fe80::21b:38ff:fed7:d3af%ppp0 ->  prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x6
