well I got a ELSA 56K Internet external modem and it works fine dialing on NTLWorld free service.I use kppp, pap auth.I dont know what UKLinux.net uses but check your modem cable.Some have 4 wires some have 2. Mine wouldn't work on the one with 4 wires and kppp used to start dialing and then die with no-dial tone detected.
I use kppp with UKLinux.net and an external 56K modem with no problems. In kppp set up try the modem commands button which IIRC will check out the basic settings and working of the modem.
