If you have CNR access, try to find this driver there.
The sourceforge project has quite a few packages. Hopefully you have this one: amedyn-2004-08-04-src.tgz
*.tgz files are called "tarballs"
TGZ = tar-gzip ... it is an archive like winzip.
double-click on it and a window will open showing the content.
right-click and select "extract here" will create a new directory with the content.
You are looking for a file called "README" ... read it.
There will probably be one called "install.txt" or something. Read that too.
You will need to have all the programming/developer packages installed, probably you will need kernel source and headers too.
Quote:
Maybe it would be easier to install distro with kernel greater or equal to 2.6.16 because xusbatm module is included in official kernel.

I do not like to suggest a different distro for such a simple problem. OTOH: I like to steer folk away from the Freespire/Linspire camp.
You should be able to update the kernel from the CNR repository. If not, then you will probably be happier with a different distro.
Can you show me the output of lsusb while the modem is plugged in.
