Antonio,

Thanks to your help, I have seen the modem recognized by fc5.

,---------[ wvdialconf output ]
| Found a modem on /dev/ttySL0.
| Modem configuration written to /etc/wvdial.conf.
| ttySL0<Info>: Speed 460800; init "ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0"

How to integrate it with networkmanager like the way wireless is
