There are a couple of things you may want to confirm. Is your
modem using the right IRQ. Open a terminal and log in as su,
then type the following:
setserial -g /dev/ttyS3
If it sees your modem properly, you will see the uart ref., port
id and irq3.
The other thing is Kppp. I like it because of its ease in setup
and the utilities built in. If you open Kppp, go to Setup.
Under the Device tab, select /dev/ttyS3, then go to the Modem
tab. The Query tab does AT queries of your modem and displays
the response. The Terminal tab gives you quick access and if you
can type 'at' 'enter' and get an OK response, then you are at
least talking to the modem.
I was looking through The Linux Modem-HOWTO and it has a far
troubleshooting guide with instructions on how to change the IRQ
if need be.
