Nathan, your modem would be* potentially be* supported by pctel modem drivers. You are using x86_64 bit linux CPU=x86_64, Ubuntu , ALSA_version=k3.13. Linux version 3.13.0-30-generic (buildd@kissel) (gcc version 4.8.2 (Ubuntu 4.8.2-19ubuntu1) ) #55-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 4 21:40:53 UTC 2014 scanModem update of: 2011_08_08 Distrib_ID=Ubuntu DistribCodeName=trusty AptRepositoryStem=http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ Presently install your Linux Distributions dkms package. It provides for automated driver updates, following upgrade of your kernel. For details see http://linux.dell.com/projects.shtml#dkms Some modem drivers can only be used in 32 bit modem on x86_64 systems, while some others are competent on x86_64 Systems. Cases are: 1) http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-seventh/msg03119.html for the snd-hda-intel audio+modem driver. Also applicable to AC97 modem controllers. In both cases, 32 bit libraries must be installed to support the slmodemd helper having a precompiled 32 bit component. 2) For USB modems using the slusb.ko driver. 32 bit libraries must be installed to support the slmodemd helper having a precompiled 32 bit component 3) The hsfmodem and hcfpcimodem drivers for Conexant chipsest modes are x86_64 competent. 4) agrsm packages for LSI/AgereSystems softmodems are not competent on x86_64 systems. if you had 32 bit linux installed, the following would explain what you need to do to get your modem up and running.
