Please see this site, there are instructions about how to configure Winmodems on Linux.

Por que hacerlo dificil si es posible hacerlo facil? - Why do it the hard way, when you can do it the easy way?

Re: To create an internet connection

The www.linmodems.org site indicates that your modem is a so-called winmodem, which means using it in Linux will be more difficult than with a "traditional" modem.

A driver for Conexant winmodems might be available here:

If you aren't familiar with compiling software and installing kernel modules, you might consider buying an external modem with a serial or USB interface: it will probably be easier to use.
