1. Find the pci file from path /proc, then use vi editor to find the vender
ID and the I/O-address, IRQ-number that Linux assigns to the modem.

For example : cd /proc
vi pci
--------------------------------
Vendor id=151f. Device id=0.
Medium devsel. IRQ=5.
I/O at 0xe400 [0xe401].
-------------------------------
(Then type q to quit vi)

2. Under path /dev, type setserial <tty-number> uart <uart number> irq
<IRQ-number> port <I/O-address> autoconfig

For example: setserial ttyS0 uart 16550A irq 4 port 0xe400 autoconfig

3. Under path /dev, firstly, remove the default settings that the modem may
be linked to, and then link the modem to the tty that you assign on step 2.

For example: rm modem
1n -s ttyS2 modem

4. Now, you can use kppp to set up the connection and test the modem.
