Unless you mispoke, I believe you may be misusing /dev/modem. /deb/modem is not a device itself, only a sym link (the wisdom of which is frequently disputed) which points to the serial device your modem is connected to. You want /dev/modem to be a sim link pointing to /deb/ttyS0. As people have pointed out, you want /dev/ttyS0, not tty0. Hope this helps.
