<div>Which basically says that the usb device address is incorrect
and needs to be changed. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Try using different USB device files in <span>/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ppp0</span></div>
<div><span><br>
</span></div>
<div><span>The line of interest is </span><span>MODEMPORT=/dev/ttyUSB3</span></div>
<div> <span> </span> </div>
<div> <span>See if maybe ttyUSB0, ttyUSB1, or ttyUSB2 work
instead (provided it is using ttyUSB3).</span> </div>
