I don't know this is a really a bug of ppp, but it
seems that the program send AT commands to quick after
opens serial port while my TA is not ready to receive
AT commands.

Fix: 

One thing I found to workaround this problem is to
add \\d before the first AT command in dial string to
wait for a while after ppp opens serial port.

set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" \\dAT OK-AT-OK ATE1Q0 OK
 \\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT"
How-To-Repeat: Using default /etc/ppp/ppp.conf, change and add device,
phone, authname, authkey entries, then start userland
ppp to dialup.  My TA returns ERROR just after ppp
sends ATD command to dial.  With the same environment,
it works with MODEM (Microcom V.34 ES II).
