Sushil,

scanModem reports that you have a pctel modem supported by slamr drivers:

Predictive  diagnostics for card in bus 01:02.0:
	Modem chipset  detected on
NAME="Modem: PCTel Inc HSP56 MicroModem "
CLASS=0703
PCIDEV=134d:2189
SUBSYS=134d:1002
IRQ=18
IDENT=slamr

 For candidate modem in:  01:02.0
   0703 Modem: PCTel Inc HSP56 MicroModem
      Primary device ID:  134d:2189
 Support type needed or chipset:	slamr


 134d:2189  is a PCTel HSP56 MicroModem 688T modem with the Oasis chipset.
 Under 2.6.n kernels, it is only supported through the Smartlink
slamr.ko driver.

The modem is supported by the Smartlink slamr
plus the slmodemd helper utility.  Read the
DOCs/Smartlink.txt and Modem/DOCs/YourSystem.txt for follow through guidance.

/* Read this if you install newest/latest Ubuntu with kernel >=
2.6.31.X , otherwise skip to instructions*/

 For kernels 2.8.31 the slamr driver is not (yet) functional, failing
within at the
   Carrier Check
 function.  Thus for service, retain a 2.8.30 or earlier kernel. For
Ubuntu users this
 can be done by downloading the kernel from
http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/linux-image-2.6.28-16-generic
 and from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/Ubuntu/
the slamr-2.6.28-16-generic.tar.gz

/*   Follow these instructions carefully */

 From  http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/Ubuntu/ ,
 download the package slamr-2.6.28-11-generic.tar.gz
 Under Linux, open a terminal and unpack with:
 $ tar zxvf slamr*.tar.gz
 Move into the unpacked folder
 $ cd slamr-2.6.28-11-generic
 Look around
 $ ls
 Run the
 $  sudo ./setup

 Afterwards do:
 $ slmodemd --help
 $ slmodemd --countrylist &> Clist.txt
 If not in the USA, look for your COUNTRY_NAME therein.
 Do and edit with:
 $ sudo gedit  /etc/default/sl-modem-daemon
 and therein replace the USA in the line:
 SLMODEMD_COUNTRY=USA
 This will provide for the correct Country setting in the automated:
    slmodemd -c COUNTRY /dev/slamr0

 Read the DOCs/Smartlink.txt and DOCs/YourSystem.txt

It also reports that you have wvdial missing and how to install it.:

The dialer utility package WVDIAL does not appear to be installed on
your System.
For Ubuntu users, there are at the bottom of
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/
packages with the files necessary to install wvdial, with names like:
     wvdial_jaunty_amd64.zip   for x86_64, 64 bit bus systems.
     wvdial_jaunty_i386.zip    for 32 bit systems.
     wvdial_karmic_i386.zip    for 32 bit systems.
These are about 1 MB in size.  After downloaded and copied into your
Linux partition:
$ unzip wv*.zip
Within the new folder:
$ sudo dpkg -i *.deb
will  complete the wvdial installation
Please read Modem/DOCs/wvdial.txt for usage information.

After installing wvdial package, run
$ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf

But make sure you leave slmodemd running in another shell /background

$ sudo slmodemd -c NEPAL /dev/slamr0

If after installing the drivers and you try to find the modem, it
can't work you can try the instructions provided here in scanModem:

For candidate card in slot 01:02.0, firmware information and bootup
diagnostics are:

[    2.443492] Couldn't register serial port 0000:01:02.0: -28

 The PCI slot 01:02.0 of the modem card may be disabled early in
 a bootup process,  but then enabled later. If modem drivers load
 but the  modem is not responsive, read DOCs/Bootup.txt about possible fixes.
 Send dmesg.txt along with ModemData.txt to discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
 if help is needed.

Regards,

Antonio
