No modem detected

I was looking under "Hardware" and I can see my modem listed under scanners. Its listed there along with my LCD screen (matrix orbital). For the modem it says "Port libusb:002:002". So I assume it knows my modem is there, so how can I make it work? If I click the "run config tool" button then it says "alcatel telecom dynamite modem is nt in the scanner database, configure it manually?" (then I will get a list of scanners).

There is no section for modems in Hardware. All I have in there is a section called "Ethernet Card".

Modem is a ZyXEL 630-11.

There is support for this under linux, but not as part of any standard kernel or distribution as of yet (Aug 6 2004).(click)
