From the error message it appears your modem does not understand the Init3 initialization string.
Try removing this line from your wvdial.conf.

Doesn't Fedora 17 have GNOME NetworkManager and ModemManager?
You shouldn't need to mess with wvdial at all.

Try removing the ; from the end of line Init5.

Do you have a PIN code on your SIM?

Something like this:

I use below setting, now you can advise where the mistake is.

[Dialer Defaults]
Phone = *99***1#
Stupid Mode = 1
Username = vodafone
Password = vodafone
Dial Command =

[Dialer pin]

Init1 = AT+CPIN = 0000


[Dialer option]

Modem = /dev/ttyUSB0
Baud = 460800
Init2 =
Init3 =
ISDN = 0
Modem Type = Analog Modem


[Dialer internet]

Init5 = AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","internet";

It is doing

--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.61
--> Initializing modem.
--> Sending: ATZ
ATZ
OK
--> Modem initialized.
--> Sending: *99***1#
--> Waiting for carrier.
--> Timed out while dialing.  Trying again.
--> Sending: *99***1#
--> Waiting for carrier.

I have tried Modem Manager, but it is not connecting, not showing anything in log.

Does the modem and SIM card work in Windows? Do you have airtime?
Try with the username and password blank, or try removing those lines.
