I think that the easiest way to tell is to visually inspect the board.
The ones that have a large amount of components, in my experience, are
h/w modems.

Also, if you put the modem into your box and you can see a TTY appear in
the boot dmesg(dmesg|grep -i tty), then linux has recognized and
assigned it to a serial interface and you should be good to go.
