Nonni,

The modem driver is snd-intel8x0m, already on your System

Download from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/
the package SLMODEMD_gcc4.2_alsa1.0.17.tar.gz having a compiled
slmodemd. Unpack under Linux with:\par
$ tar zxf SLMODEMD_gcc4.3_alsa1.0.17.tar.gz\par
and read instructions therein. But briefly, the modem is setup with command:\par
$ sudo  slmodemd -c CANADA  --alsa modem:1
reporting dynamic creation of ports:\par
 /dev/ttySL0 --> /dev/pts/N   , with N some number
Read DOCs/Smartlink.txt and Modem/DOCs/YourSystem.txt for follow
through guidance.

You seem to have installed the sl-modem-daemon package.  If so do
$ sudo gedit /etc/default/ sl-modem-daemon
and change the Country from  USA  to CANADA.

Then there is already done during bootup, the
   slmodemd -c CANADA  --alsa modem:1

and  the modem should be found by:
$ sudo wvdialconf
Edit in your personal information by:
$ sudo gedit  /etc/wvdial.conf
removing the symbols:  < >  ;
and adding a line:
Carrier Check   =  no

Thereafter your should be able to dialout with:
$ sudo wvdial

If the modem occassional dies, just do
$ sudo  /etc/init.d/sl-modem-daemon  restart
