You have to understand that these soft modems may seem to work (and yiu
hear the noise, but how since the SmartLink driver does not support
sound ?) but what you send to the modem goes into vacuum if you do not
have the right driver.
So, to know exactly what your modem has in its guts, and then help you,
we need the report ModemData.txt prepared by scanModem:

Hello,
I've installed with no problems my Smartlink compatible PCI modem
Netodragon MDV92XP (ScanModem identifies it as 10b9:5459) on my Ubuntu
7.10 machine following the instructions given in the Ubuntu wiki.
Now I'm having problems with the connection using wvdial because the
modem can't ''catch'' the server answer. In fact, this is what I get:
emanuele@emanuele-desktop:~$ wvdial
WvDial: WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.56
WvModem: Cannot get information for serial port.
WvDial: Initializing modem.
WvDial: Sending: ATZ
WvDial Modem: ATZ
WvDial Modem: OK
WvDial: Sending: ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 X3
WvDial Modem: ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 X3
WvDial Modem: OK
WvDial: Modem initialized.
WvDial: Sending: ATDT0802201400
WvDial: Waiting for carrier.
WvDial Modem: ATDT0802201400
at this step, about 45 seconds after the server answer (that I can hear
without problems), I get on the console:
WvDial: Timed out while dialing. Trying again.
WvDial: Sending: ATDT0802201400
WvDial: Waiting for carrier.
WvDial Modem: NO CARRIER
WvDial Modem: ATDT0802201400
WvDial: No Carrier! Trying again.
WvDial: Sending: ATDT0802201400
WvDial: Waiting for carrier.
WvDial Modem: NO CARRIER
WvDial Modem: ATDT0802201400
WvDial: No Carrier! Trying again.
Here starts an endless loop, as you can guess, and I must stop it with
Ctrl-c.
My wvdial.conf is:
[Dialer Defaults]
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 X3
Modem Type = Analog Modem
Baud = 460800
New PPPD = yes
Modem = /dev/ttySL0
ISDN = 0
Carrier Check = no
Stupid Mode = yes
Phone = 0802201400
Password = *******************************
Username = *******************************
the provider is Infinito, but I've tested also another one, Libero,
(always using a local POP 080) getting the same results.
I've tried a lot of different strings for 'Init2': adding +MS=34 or
+MS=90, substituting &D0 with &D2, erasing &C1, &D2 and/or +FCLASS=0 (in
every combination), using ATS11=40 or, finally, copying the 'Init'
string inside the '.inf' file of my Windows drivers that make the modem
working now. That string is: AT &F E0 X3 V1 &A3 &D2 &C1 S0=0.
All these attempts failed in the same way just described. I'm able to
send you ScanModem output, if needed.
Can you help me?
Thank you for reading, and sorry for my bad English.
Emanuele
