cannot find my modem

I am still working on trying to get
dialup internet working in one way or another. I gave
up on the laptop for now, because it would not upgrade. I
think I finally got everything installed properly on my
desktop computer, but it seems that wvdial cannot find my
modem.
Following are the results of running agrsm-test, sudo
wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf, and sudo wvdial. I have
also attached a copy of ModemData.txt for this
computer. The drivers are loaded, the symbolic link
has been created, and I have put the line "Modem =
/dev/ttySAGR" into wvdial.conf, but still wvdial does not
seem to be able to communicate with my usb modem. Can
you please help me figure out what else I am missing? Or do I just
have an odd chipset that is not supported?

A reboot may be necessary before modem detection through:
sudo modprobe
agrserial
Which will load agrmodem, agrserial and create the symbolic
link needed
for:
sudo wvdialconf
The installation record has been written to
./agrsm-test.txt

Sorry, no modem was detected! Is it in use by another
program?
Did you configure it properly with setserial?
Please read the FAQ at http://open.nit.ca/wiki/?WvDial
If you still have problems, send mail to <wvdial-list@xxxxxxxxxxxx>.

sudo wvdial:
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.60
--> Initializing modem.
--> Sending: ATZ
--> Sending: ATQ0
--> Re-Sending: ATZ
--> Modem not responding.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Since wvdial.conf could not be created automatically, I
tried to
manually edit it as follows:
[Dialer Defaults]
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
Baud = 115200
Modem = /dev/ttySAGR
Phone = xxxxxxx
Password = xxxxxxx
Username = xxxxxxx
New PPPD = yes

Thanks.
