this can be a dongle problem, because the dongle contains a Broadcom
chip and we already know that under some weird circumstances this is
buggy. But actually I think that your PPP setting are not correct for a
GPRS dialin. Check the some GPRS+PPP HOWTO's.

If you really want to be sure that this is no Bluetooth problem you must
run "hcidump -w <file>" as root and send us the resulting dump file.

Marcel
