Briefly, the modem is setup with command:
#     slmodemd -c PHILIPPINES --alsa hw:0,6
 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.

I'll send you the slmodemd, with an update you will need separately
