The TR light being on means that it is connected to a serial port.
Can't remember whether it means that the serial port has been activated
(i.e. serial.o has been installed) or not.
>the modem din't respond to any comands given using miterm also
This suggests that there is no serial connection to the modem...
are you sure that you are connecting to the correct /dev/ttyS[1,2,3,4]
(i.e. com port).

Now that's a lot stranger... was that modem definitely plugged into the s
ame serial port & used with the same /dev file?
Have you done the setup -f port & enabled the serial ports?
Does lsmod report serial as one of the loaded modules?

It should work perfectly...
It just appears completely unable to talk to the modem...

Good luck,
