I bought a Nuvo 14,400IFX last week.  I had no problems connecting to anything.
Have you changed the init string in memory?  Are you (or is your comm software)
adding any commands before dialing?  I took the defaults, and changed only the
following:
             ATL0&C1&D2
which sets the speaker to low volume (that damn thing is LOUD!) and ensures
hang-up after disconnection.  You may want to do an AT&V check to see what
your current config is as opposed to the defaults.  Try to make them match if
you can--at least initially.  Then write it back into memory with the command
AT&W0.  If your modem initializes to AT&Y0, then the configuration in memory
0 will load as your current configuration (AT&Y1 would make memory 1 your
default at power-on).

I had problems at first, but that was because the first one I bought had no
manual with it.  When I got the manual, everything fell into place for me.
