The following are the files I use for my sierra with AT&T.

cp /usr/share/examples/pppd/cingular3G /etc/ppp/peers/
cp /usr/share/examples/pppd/cingular3G.chat /etc/ppp/connect/

pppd call cingular3G
ping what-you-want.

If you have a different provider, you'll need to adjust those.
Look in google for the appropriate initialization strings for
your provider.
