It then repeats the above a number of times.

I have tried both telstra.bigpond and telstra.internet, makes no difference.

It sounds like you are making some progress at least.  I came across this while looking for more information:


Which basically says that the usb device address is incorrect and needs to be changed.  

Try using different USB device files in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ppp0

The line of interest is MODEMPORT=/dev/ttyUSB3
 
See if maybe ttyUSB0, ttyUSB1, or ttyUSB2 work instead (provided it is using ttyUSB3).


thanks for your help, I just checked , there is no  /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ppp0 in ubuntu.
