That's an external one, isn't it?? So can you talk to it on /dev/ttyS0 or is it on ttyS1? ( try connecting to it with minicom, and typing ATZ - it'll answer OK if it is, then you'll be sure which device it's on ).
Other options, like is it waiting for a dialtone ( maybe from the wrong country? ) before dialling, or can you connect to the clear account that you know the modem can connect to on other machines?? Hopefully that'll help to identify which bit is playing up...
