Support type needed or chipset: Agere.SV2P_potentially_supported
Vendor 11c1 is Lucent Technologies with modem technology now under LSI
Inc.
Their Linux code developer/maintainer is Soumyendu Sarkar. Support for
a chipset and its
continued maintenance is only initiated at the request of a major
chipset buyer,
or comparable sponsor. Several different modem chipset types are
produced:
with varying support under Linux.

agrsm-alpha.tar.bz2 potentially provides support for PCI_id chipsets
11c1:048c, 11c1:048f and 11c1:0620
in addition to prior support of Subsystems under Intel 8086:???? below
11C1:048C

11C1:0620
8086:(2416 2426 7196 2486 24C6 24CD6 266D) are soft modem controllers,
better
supported through ALSA modem drivers and the Smartlink slmodemd
helper.
There has only been one reported success for 11c1:048c, 11c1:048f and
11c1:0620. See:

Interaction with experts will likely be necessary to get any of these
modems working.

Completed candidate modem analyses.
The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev
Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.1.1
and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.1.1
Kernel-header resources needed for compiling are not manifestly ready!
If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing:
kernel-source-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6xen

To enable dialout without Root permission do:
$ su - root (not for Ubuntu)
chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd
or under Ubuntu related Linuxes

Read Modem/YourSystem.txt concerning other COMM channels: xenbr0
Which can interfere with Browser naviagation.
Don't worry about the following, it is for the experts
should trouble shooting be necessary.
