Just upgraded my Dell Latitude 2.4 Ghz laptop to Kubuntu 6.10 - modem wouldn't work (had previously worked with Kubuntu 6.06).
While monitoring the system log, I inserted the modem, and saw that it was being mapped as ttyS1 (com1 port MUST be enabled in BIOS!).
I then created the link below:
sudo ln -s /dev/ttyS1 /dev/modem
Now all is well -
Great modem - have used it for over a year on various versions, with no issues.
I do use the s17 command to set the maximum speed that it tries to connect at - otherwise, it takes too long and times out.

Great modem - have used it on several distributions, in a Dell Latitude 2.4 Ghz laptop.
Am currently using Kubuntu 6.10 - had some problems finding the modem. Finally used system log to monitor while inserting the card. It showed up being mapped as /dev/ttyS1.
(com1 MUST be enabled in BIOS for the system to map the modem!)
I then created a link to the modem by:
sudo ln -s /dev/ttyS1 /dev/modem
All is working
well now.

I had to use /dev/ttyS1 since the network control couldn't use the sym
link /dev/modem.
