I'm not very familiar with that style of configuration.
My supposition is that you miss the
identification/authentification step.
Maybe you can try something like :

      -------------------------------------------------
      #/etc/ppp/chat-linet
      -------------------------------------------------
      ABORT 'NO CARRIER'
      ABORT 'NO DIALTONE'
      ABORT 'ERROR'
      ABORT 'BUSY'
      ABORT 'NO ANSWER'
      '' ATZ0
      OK ATX3
      OK ATDT71586543
      username>--username> MyUserName
      password> MyPassword

This is my style of configuration.
Of course, the strings "username>" and "password>" depend on your
provider... You should try "manually" connecting to your provider
first. Or maybe you have "Miami" on AmigaOS side, which is quite
convenient for sketching a PPP connection script.

Do you really mean <remote IP> ? Because if it was a fully
qualified domain name, then your problem might reside in
"/etc/resolv.conf" (missing name-server).

Hope it helps,
