Under Linux 2.6.n kernels, the chipset is NOT SUPPORTED . Read DOCs/InfoGeneral.txt about alternatives.
Vendor=1813 Ambient Tech was acquired by Intel with its HaM (Host assisted Modem) chipsets.
There is no support under 2.6.n kernels!!
Intel-v92ham-453.tgz 2.4.n kernels was the FINAL 2.4.n update for HaM modems, available at:
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/Intel/ham/
http://developer.intel.com/design/modems/support/drivers.htm
It is NOT functional when compiled under 2.6.n kernels.
But under the 2.4.nn kernels, all HaM chipsets were supported,
with a single EXCEPTION: the odd PCI_ID 1813:4100 modems. For the explanation, see message:

Completed candidate modem analyses.
The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev
Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.4.3
and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.4.3
linux-headers-2.6.33.7-desktop-1mnb resources needed for compiling are not manifestly ready!
If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing:
kernel-desktop-devel-2.6.33.7-desktop-1mnb
If a driver compilation fails, with message including some lack of some FileName.h (stdio.h for example), then
Some additional kernel-header files need installation to /usr/include. The minimal additional packages are libc6-dev
and any of its dependents, under Ubuntu linux-libc-dev
If an alternate ethernet connection is available,
$ apt-get update
$ apt-get -s install linux-kernel-devel
will install needed packages.
For Debian/Ubuntu related distributions, run the following command to display the needed package list:
Otherwise packages have to be found through http://packages.ubuntu.com
Once downloaded and transferred into a Linux partition,
they can be installed alltogether with:
$ sudo dpkg -i *.deb

To enable dialout without Root permission do:
$ su - root (not for Ubuntu)

It has samples for a modem using port /dev/ttySL0, which must be changed to match your modem's port.
