Are you sure it is an analogue modem?  Is this entry needed?

The driver should create a number of devices, ttyUSB0/ttyUSB1/ttyUSB2/...  =
Try=20
them all in turn, only some may allow PPP connections.

Unless you are just trying to dial out over a PSTN number (which you are no=
t)=20
you should be able to increase the baud to a higher number; e.g. 115200

Did you get anything more detailed in your logs?

Do you have a pap-secrets file even if empty?  If not:

touch /etc/ppp/pap-secrets; chmod 600 /etc/ppp/pap-secrets

If it still fails try adding something like this:

# Secrets for authentication using PAP
# client        server  secret                  IP addresses
"user"  *       ""


HOWEVER ...=20

I thought that the whole idea is to use this modem to connect on a 4G (LTE)=
=20
network ... yes?

In which case PPP is not the correct protocol.  If this Huawei is using=20
Qualcomm chipset you should be using the qmi protocol and the cdc_ncm drive=
r=20
ought to do all the dialling using this device (from your dmesg):

[22765.769603] cdc_ncm 1-1.1:1.1 wwan0: register 'cdc_ncm' at
usb-0000:00:1a.0-1.1, Mobile Broadband Network Device, 0c:5b:8f:27:9a:64

Other driver/protocols that can achieve high speeds of 4G are cdc-ether, cd=
c-
acm, but your card ought to pick out the correct available protocol from th=
e=20
corresponding kernel module.  PPP incurs an overhead (due to packet=20
encapsulation) and throughput speeds will be slower.

That's how I understand these devices to work, but unfortunately I can't=20
verify any of this because I do not have access to such a device or a 4G=20
network.  :-(

I hope someone else who does can chime in.
