My work ought to support your modem.
[philippe@victor ~]$ grep e159:0001 intel-536-537/*

The alternative to modifying the bash files is to download

Please reply whether you are fully satisfied or not.

Thanks for the swift reply Antonio.
Well originally I had a conexant chipset for a HCF modem that the linuxant group had drivers for, however those drivers ONLY worked on pre 3.x kernels so they broke when I upgraded. Dev team from Linuxant has informed me they are aware of the API break in the driver for the newer kernel and say they should fix it sometime soon. Meanwhile I dug up the Intel modem you see below to try and get it to work.
So short answer I never should have upgraded!! :)

Patrick,
I am unsure if that modem in particular is served by Phillipe's
driver. IT does not seem to be a true INTEL 537 modem :(
However, there was a recent update to the driver since it was failing
to build up in Ubuntu and it was working fine in Fedora 15. Did you
make sure that you got the latest driver available from Phillipe's
website?
Oops sorry, you did get the latest one. Maybe Phillipe can comment
here to make sure that maybe something went wrong, or that it may be
specific to 537 modem, since the driver also works with 536 Intel
based modems.
Regards,
Antonio
BTW,
since you have experience with linux since the Red Hat days, did you
get to use this particular modem before? If you did and the drivers
worked, I see no reason why the modem should not work with the newer
kernels.

I'm not exactly a newbie to linux and Fedora since I've used it back when i= t was called red hat...I've upgraded to Fedora 16 recently and boy how thin= gs have changed! Anyways, here is where I'm at:

So I visited http://vouters.dyndns.org/Intel/ and heeded Philippe's note to=
:
If you execute a 3.x.y kernel, download:

el/intel-536EP-537EP_2011_12_11.tar.bz2>
...and continued to untar and try to build.
Issuing make clean and make 537 seem to work with a warning:
