Debian is unable to do anything with the Windows modem on my system and so I

Can anyone direct me to a software solution for this problem?
The modem is a model IN5692, Lucent 1646T00/1034AH-J (Mars-2) chipset, no
PCI.
I think the kernel is 2.4.18 and the version of Debian is number 3, GNU.
I have read a Linmodem-HOWTO and a Winmodems-and-Linux-HOWTO but I am hoping
to find something very specific to my system as I don't know much about this
sort of thing.
Much thanks

has info that might be helpful to you. It has links to Debian binaries. In such a case, just download the binary to your local drive, then run "dpkg -i name_of_unzipped-untarred_file.deb". If you're unsure how to do this, holler back to the list.
The page says it's for "Mars" chipsets, but doesn't say anything about "Mars-2". It also says it's definitely not for AMR modems, so unless you have an AMR, I'd try it.
