[CLUE-Tech] modem is not responding

The first thing I would try is figure out if that is really where the modem is.
Try:
echo +++>/dev/cua
echo ATZ>/dev/cua
echo ATDT3035551212>/dev/cua

Obviously you can replace the phone number with whatever you want.  I would 
try using your own number, so you will only get a busy signal.  Pich up the 
other phone and listen in to see if it worked.

This should give you good insight into why it did not work (modem hooked up 
wrong, permissions, bad symlink, wrong device, roasted hardware, etc.)
