Try:
Download from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/
the package SLMODEMD.gcc4.1tar.gz having a compiled slmodemd. Unpack
under Linux with:
      $ tar zxf SLMODEMD.gcc4.1tar.gz
and read instructions therein.

But briefly, corresponding to diagnostic
00-06: Si3054 Modem : Si3054 Modem : playback 1 : capture 1
The the modem is setup with command:
      sudo slmodemd -c  SRILANKA --alsa hw:0,6
hopefully reporting dynamic creation of ports:
      /dev/ttySL0 --> /dev/pts/N   , with N some number
Read Smartlink.txt and Modem/YourSystem.txt for follow through guidance.

Hi Guys,

I have been struggling to pickup the modem driver need to install in to
my computer. Attached is my ModemData.txt file generated from ScanModem
utility. Any help would be greately appriciated.

Thanks,

 Lacking a dsp (digital signal processing) chip, the modem is a software
 intensive or "softmodem" type. Its primary controller manages the traffic
 with the CPU. But the software needed is specified in the Subsystem.
 -----------------------------------------
Support type needed or chipset: slmodemd

 An ALSA (Advanced Linux Sound Architecture) modem driver:  snd-intel8x0m
 provides Low Level support enabling contact with the modem hardware.
 For all BUT Conexant chip soft modems (using hsfmodem software)
 complementary High Level support is through a Smartlink utility:  slmodemd

 Download from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/
 the package SLMODEMD.gcc4.tar.gz having a compiled slmodemd. Unpack under Linux with:
        $ tar zxf SLMODEMD.gcc4.tar.gz
 and read instructions therein. But briefly, the modem is setup with command:
        sudo slmodemd -c YOUR_COUNTRY --alsa modem:1
