sierra-wireless-modem-on-a-linux-operating-system-%3F-%28-v.1.7.36%29
Sometimest command port is different than data port. Try different cuau0.0, 
cuau0.1, cuau0.2 also GPS many times has his own subinterface so that may be 
the point. 

My working ppp.conf dial definition, with pin enabled:
 set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \
                \"\" AT OK-AT-OK \
                AT OK-AT-OK AT+CPIN=0000 OK-AT-OK\
                AT+CGDCONT=1,\\\"IP\\\",\\\"internet\\\" OK \
                AT OK-AT-OK \\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT"
