OK - here's a long shot!
Does your modem have 2 RJ-11 sockets - one to connect to the line, and the
other to allow a phone to be connected to it? If so, are you sure that your
modem cable is plugged into the right socket.
Plugging it into the wrong socket would explain lack of dial tone. It could
also explain failure to connect when you told it not to care about dial
tone.
