Both ungrad-winmodem.ko and slamr.ko  modules must be compiled and installed.After a new bootup.
$ su root#  mknod -m 660 /dev/slamr0 c 242 0Check with:# ls -l /dev/slamr0
Load the drivers in order:# modprobe ungrab-winmodem# modprobe slamr
Activate the modem (use USA for testing)#  slmodemd -c USA  /dev/slamr0should announce creation of ports   /dev/ttySL0 --> /dev/pts/N
If this works, open a 2nd console, and therein:# wvdialconf  /etc/wvdial.confshould find the modem
Read the wvdial.txt on info how to edit /etc/wvdial.conf , beforetrying to dialout with:# vwdial
Automation can be achieved later
