Alan,

your modem HSF modem as pointed out by ModemData.txt:

Predictive  diagnostics for card in bus 01:01.0:
    Modem chipset  detected on
NAME="Communication controller: Conexant Systems, Inc. HSF 56k
Data/Fax/Voice/Spkp Modem "
CLASS=0780
PCIDEV=14f1:2016
SUBSYS=13e0:0219
IRQ=10
IDENT=hsfmodem
Driver=hsfmodem-drivers

 For candidate modem in:  01:01.0
   0780 Communication controller: Conexant Systems, Inc. HSF 56k
Data/Fax/Voice/Spkp Modem
      Primary device ID:  14f1:2016
 Support type needed or chipset:    hsfmodem



For owners of a Dell PCs with Conexant HSF modems, a driver source
package with full speed enabled is available, but requires driver
compiling. Read DOCs/Conexant.txt


Modem support packages from Linuxant include resources for compiling drivers.
If an installer package matching your kernel_version  is not provided,
just install a generic code package.

 Start at  http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full for
 eventually download of a hsfmodem-7.68.00.12full_k.???.
zip package
 with ??? the package type (deb, rpm, tar etc)
 These packages have compiled drivers but will also compile a driver,
 if there is a mismatch between the resident kernel and provided driver.
 The generic hsfmodem-7.68.00.12full.tar.gz package only provides
compiling support


Start at http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/downloads-license.php to find the
hsfmodem package matching your System. For several Linux distros, there are
precompiled drivers matched to specific kernels. These have within the FileName,
your KernelVersion:    3.11.0_12_generic
They can be found through http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads.php
A more precise location may be given a few paragraphs below.
If an EXACT Match with your your KernelVersion is not found, one of the
"Generic packages with source" near the bottom of the page must be used.
Downloaded packages must be moved into the Linux partition (home folder is OK)
and unzipped with:
    unzip hsf*.zip
The installation command for a .deb suffic packages is, with root/adm
permission:
   dpkg -i hsf*.deb
while for .rpm suffix it is, with:
  rpm -i hsf*.rpm
 Read DOCs/Conexant.txt


May no longer work with newer kernels support appears to have ceased?
I wish I could advise you in this case.


Best Regards,


Antonio
