WinModem also usable for Linux?

Symptom:

Cause:

The modem is likely to be a so-called WinModem, that is not controlled by a serial port, but the digital signal processor (DSP) on board must be controlled directly by the main CPU.
There are a well defined command set for modems, standardized by the ITU (International Telecommunications Union, www.itu.ch) and TIA (Telecommunications Industry Association, www.tiaonline.org). These standards ITU V.250 and TIA/EIA 602 define the command set of a modem. This command set has the ancient names Hayes command set or AT command set.
Linux operates modems conforming to the standards mentioned above.
WinModems contravene these standards, their interface details are not uncovered frequently.
