[ale] still cant connect to bellsouth

[Gary Maltzen]

If you read more carefully, you'll see that he got neither a "name:" nor a
"ogin:" prompt, but hung up immediately after getting the trailing
("115200^m") part of the CONNECT response.

I assume you are correct about that he should expect a "name:" prompt; I'm
in USWestLand.

your first expect is wrong Bellsouth looks for a Username: not a Login:
so you need to change the script to expect name: and then ssword:
