Hello, any help from your side?
Thanks
*********************************
Hi, I am new in the Linux world,
Can anybody help me with running my agere win modem

Systems LT WinModem
Primary PCI_id 11c1:0445
Support type needed or chipset: Agere.DSP
The modem has a supported Lucent/Agere Mars or
Apollo DSP (digital signal
processing) chipset. Support packages for 2.6.n
kernels are at:
http://phep2.technion.ac.il/linmodems/packages/ltmodem/kernel-2.6/martian/
See AgereDSP.txt for Details.
DSP=1
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

11C1:0620
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.
