There's the rub. Winmodems of any kind CANNOT respond to AT commands. They 
don't have an embedded controller (or any other controller) in them to 
emulate the hayes command set.

A winmodem is a generic name for any controller-less modem that simply 
presents it's raw innards to the outside world. EACH ONE operates 
differently, some have 99 address registers others get by with two, Others 
use dsp, others expect the cpu to do it for them. There is NO and can be NO 
'standard' accross the oem range of winmodems. Each one must be programmed 
differently. The specs for ANY one of these animals are jealously guarded 
secrets of the manufacturer. The so-called 'AMR' modem is nothing more (or 
less) than another animal of this breed, a winmodem.

www.linmodems.org for supported linux modems of both types. There are plenty 
of references to what winmodems are, there are NO references to how to 
program them, nor will it ever eventuate.
