My modem works fine with callback option, but I want to call to them
from another place without to use callback function - I want just to
have a regular login prompt. When dial in, modem always ask me for
caller id, when I press Enter, he ask me again, I press Enter again and
modem hangs up connection… instead of login prompt.
It is possible to dial in to modem with active callback option and get
login prompt?

There are multiple purposes of callback
-putting long distance charges on the server side
-security
For security, allowing a bypass to the prompt defeats everything.
It looks like QNX intended Callback mainly for security

Yes, it is possible! You only have to use two entries per user, such as
karl_cb: ATDT12345
karl: *
The line with the asterisk just gives you a plain login after entering
‘karl’ as callback ID (don’t ask me, where I found that, it works since
years 
).
