Have you read http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Modem-HOWTO-2.html ?
And specially section 2.9 ?
wvdialconf can't find it.
I'm relatively new to Linux, so I'm not very sure about what I'm doing, but
I couldn't find an acm driver anywhere in my 2.6 system.
so after looking around on the web, I tried this:
modprobe usbserial vendor=0x148d product=0x1671
depmod
Then I looked in /var/log/messages and there was much more going on, but it
still ended in an error:
Sep 16 06:36:27 localhost kernel: usb 3-1: new full speed USB device using
uhci_hcd and address 3
Sep 16 06:36:32 localhost kernel: usb 3-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1

Sep 16 06:36:32 localhost kernel: usbserial_generic: probe of 3-1:1.1 failed

I persisted and tried opening /dev/ttyUSB0, but it hung.
Thank you,

Chaim,
It is impossible to identify an USB modem by its chipset, at least I do
not know how to do that.
Please, which are the make of your modem?
Please give as much information as you can, including everything written
on the modem.
If the device would be a PCI chip embedded in the USB modem, then 148d
means that the manufacturer is Digicom which has only one modem, 1003, in
its catalog (a Conexant HCF clone or embedded). But this is not your case.
There is no information for any device model 1671 made by Digicom.
Rob Clark's well maintained table http://xmodem.org/modems/usblist.html
shows two modems made by ASKEY using Digicom chips: none has the same USB
chip 148d:1671 as yours.
Have you read http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Modem-HOWTO-2.html ?
And specially section 2.9 ?
Have you tried to run wvdialconf (see man wvdialconf or
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/wvdial.html) to see if by chance your
modem is USB CDC ACM compliant and thus will work without any extra
driver?
Are you aware that the modem has to be powered when trying wvdialconf?

The usb modem reports:

Is there support for this?
Thanks in advance,
