Verizon novatech USB551L connecting with RB751U ROS 5.11

Hardware: RB751U
ROS: 5.11
USB Modem: Verizon Novatech USB551L (on the compatability list as of 5.9)

I set this up, and connected it. The RB detects the USB modem, but when I try to make a PPP connection, I get this in the log:

initializing modem.
resetting link
resetting link, could not acquire serial port.
dialing out.

...repeats over and over.

I tried with and without apn=vzwinternet, but cannot seem to make any headway with it.

Same issue. Did you figure out the problem?

My solution was to buy a cradlepoint router.
