You will have to find the device file of your modem : /dev/ttyS01,02,03 etc. See if there is a link from it to /dev/modem. (ls /dev/modem). Otherwise make a link to /dev/modem after you know the device file of your modem:
ln -s /dev/ttyS02 /dev/modem (change the '02' part suitably)
Then you will have to insert the driver module for your modem with modprobe or insmod (read the man pages)
You can also read a little of the Modem-Howto and also Linmodem-Howto for more details.
It's best to avoid all this and get a broadband connection if one is available where you live.
