<snipped modem config stuff>

Your first step should be confirming whether you are able to communicate
with the modem. Try soemthing like minicom to manually send commands to
the modem. If you are unable to do that, try a different modem, one you 
know for sure is working. If that doesn't work, try a different serial
card.
