Diamond,

Start with the below and report back presently.
Though the modem was not directly detected,
the presence of an Conexant High Definition Audio (HDA) chipset
strongy suggest that the modem on the HDA card subsyem also is a
Conexant type.
Under Linux, Conexant modems are supported through Linuxant.

>From  http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads-ubuntu-x86.php
download hsfmodem-7.68.00.12full_k2.6.24_19_generic_ubuntu_i386.deb.zip
Under Linux unpack with:
$ unzip hsfmodem*.zip
Then install with:
$ sudo dpkg -i hsfmodem*.deb
Subsequently, the modem should be found with
$ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
Edit in your personal information with:
$ sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf
and try dialing out with:
$ sudo wvdial.
See DOCs/Testing.txt  for details.
