I use the same connection to make calls as well as connecting to the Internet.

Very helpful suggestion. There was a problem with the phone wiring
recently. May be it's due to that. Okay, I'll do as you suggest -
thoughI haven't yet tried the wvdial stuff that Antonio suggested

I think I did both. It doesn't create any logs - may be because it
doesn't make any connections - probably which is why it correctly says
"No Carrier". I'll enable logging again to be 100% certain.
