Syn

For softmodem chip:  0x10573057 recognized from
The /proc/asound/pcm file reports:
-----------------------
  00-06: Si3054 Modem : Si3054 Modem

hw:0,6 is the ALSA specified device.

 Download from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/
 the package SLMODEMD.gcc4.1.tar.gz having a compiled slmodemd. Unpack
under Linux with:
        $ tar zxf SLMODEMD.gcc4.1.tar.gz
 and read instructions therein. But briefly, the modem is setup with command:
        sudo slmodemd -c CANADA  --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.
