The cell phone in "modem mode" may be enabled in Windows because of the application/drivers provided by the manufacturer for Windows OS. The above may *not* happen automatically in Linux. Does the device show up in dmesg? Is the usb-serial module loaded in the kernel? Just like in Windows, the proper drivers need to be installed. usb-serial module must be loaded. Additionally, the user may also have to switch to the device to modem mode.
