Antomio reported Microsoft diagnostics: Modem type: Agere Systems PCI-SV92EX Soft Modem pci\ven_11c1&dev_0630&subsys_063011c1 which lines translates in Linux format: PCI_ID 11c1:0630 which shows that it is in the Agere Systems PCI-SV92 family, i.e., a type which might be supported by the current agrsm code. More tomorrow.
