It would appear that this "modem" is a mobile phone with gprs?
1. contact airtel cust. care and point out you are using SUSE GNU/Linux and to please make sence.
I've found:

... which suggests using kppp as normal.

lets start from scratch...
i assume that you have bluetooth enabled cell, active GPRS connection. first of all give these commands on terminal
$ hcitool scan ---> it will give you string like 00:0A:6E:B0****...... this is your cell id
$ rfcomm bind /dev/rfcomm0 <your cell id> 1
click on kppp
configure ---> Accounts ---> New .... select manual..<wizard is not avialable for India>
connection name --> gprs <watever you like>
phone number ---> *99***#1 <its for AirTel GPRS...for other ISPs, contact ISP for phone number>
Authentication ---> script-based
callback ---> none
leave other things default.. like IP -- Dynamic, Gateway --- Default, DNS --- Automatic
click OK
Modem : click New
in Device Section
Name ---> watever you like
Device ---> /dev/rfcomm0
Flow Control ---> Hardware
Line Termination ---> CR
connection speed ---> for AirTel gprs its 115200 <contact ur ISP for speed>
Uncheck "Use Lock file"
In Modem section
click on Modem Command ---> dont change anything except Dial String. by default its ATDT... change it to ATD ---> click OK
in Misc section... check "dock into panel on connect"... <check other options if u like>
thats all !!!!! now click on connect..... if devices are not paired, it will ask for passcode like windows...
================================================== ==
you can add "rfcomm" command in /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf file but problems is, in INDIA, GPRS get disconnected now and then...
create a file "nets" <name --- watever you like> copy these lines...
rfcomm release all
/etc/rc.d/init.d/bluetooth restart
rfcomm bind /dev/rfcomm0 <your cell id> 1
save it in /root/bin folder and make it executable
$ chmod u+x nets
before starting KPPP... execute this file...
================================================== ===
well !! after doing all this..... you have to follow these steps to use internet...
open terminal
$ su - <you must be root to execute this file>
$ nets
$ exit
now click on KPPP and connect.......
================================================== ===
if net got Disconnect, follow these steps again..
