Danilo,
scanModem reports that you have an 11c1:0620 agere modem.
Predictive diagnostics for card in bus 00:0a.0:
Modem chipset detected on
NAME="Communication controller: Agere Systems Unknown device 0620"
CLASS=0780
PCIDEV=11c1:0620
SUBSYS=11c1:0620
IRQ=11
IDENT=agrsm
For candidate modem in: 00:0a.0
0780 Communication controller: Agere Systems Unknown device 0620
Primary device ID: 11c1:0620
Support type needed or chipset: agrsm
The AgereSystems/LSI agrsm code supports compiling of a agrmodem +
agrserial driver pair.
There are a few different chipsets which use this driver pair, but they
use different code resources:

* KV == latest kernel release with a reported success
!! Latest update with major credit to Nikolay Zhuravlev
But see conflict issue:
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-nineth/msg02753.html
Report from Bjorn Wielens:
Please note- trying to load the modules on a OpenSuSE 11.2 system gives
an error about the module_version symbol. Using:
# modprobe --force agrmodem
# modprobe --force agrserial
is necessary to load the drivers, and does not appear to cause ill effects.
All of the above packages are dkms competent. This means that if your
Linux distros dkms package
is previously installed, if provides for future updates matching
forthcoming kernels.
-------------- end Agere Systems section -------------------
Try downloading the package:
agrsm06pci-2.1.80~20100106.tar.gz
and see if it works. This is for kernels >= 2.6.31? Wonder if it
works for your 2.6.18.X CentOS kernel?
Regards,
Antonio
