 Blake,

Please return any physical information you have about your modem,
as the diagnostics were exceptionally sparse.

If it is an internal modem, also return the outputs of
$ lspci
$ lspci -nv
from within which, scanModem usually automatically picks out PCI card modems

Also if it is internal run
$ bash -x ./scanModem  2>&1 |   tee blake.txt
and send me the blake.txt
so I can assess if scanModem needs a fix.
