Is your modem an external one?

yes, it's a gray external one.

If so
- connect it to your machine's serial port (/dev/ttyS0 or /dev/ttyS1)

I connected the modem to /dev/ttyS0 port. Then used the network gui
interface to add the modem connection. Done this, tried to activate
the connection and after some modem lights blinking the modem get lost
forever. As if the channel ttyS0 kept busy trying to connect without a
response, or something like that. I needed to restart the system.

- try to communicate with it with 'minicom'
- ensure it responds your 'at' commands

Once done, you are safe to create a /dev/modem symlink to your ttySx device.

well, think I need to connect to the modem first, or not ?.

As a side note, when I tried with the CentOS 4.4 live CD it connected
perfectly well.
