Run

is the modem detected?
If so:
# gedit /etc/wvdial.conf
entering your personal info and deleting the < >

Hi,
This installation looks like it's installing the drivers and finding the modem ok but when I try to configure an internet connection it only gives me serial port options. It does not seem to find the PCI modem.
Thanks for being willing to help!
