Martin,

agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20090825.tar.gz  is the only package which may
provide service for the 11c1:0630 chipset
Best check that multiple driver sets are not installed somewhere:
$ find  /lib/modules/$(uname -r)  -name agr*.ko

If there are multiple. Best delete all and rerun the
agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20090825.tar.gz  install.
If this was not the last installed delete all and rerun the
agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20090825.tar.gz  install

It is not clear from your message below as to whether the wvdial
package is installed or not.
If not, from the bottom of http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/
get the  wvdial_jaunty_i386.zip
Under Linux
$ unzip wv*.zip
$ cd  wvdial_jaunty_i386
$ ls
install with
$ sudo dpkg -i *.deb

Then rerun the
$ sudo agrsm-test

If successful, it will write a file /etc/wvdial.conf   .  Edit it with:
$ sudo gedit  /etc/wvdial.conf
putting in personal info while deleting symbols:  <  >  ;

Then try a dialout with:
$ sudo wvdial

Upon a reboot the modem will be set up by:
$ sudo modprobe agrserial
You can check porsts with:
$ ls -l  /dev/AGR*  /dev/SAGR
and for driver loading:
$ lsmod  |  grep agr

Once you are online under Linux  install the dkms driver update utility with:
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install dkms
