**External** modems don't have IRQs and ioports; serial ports do. Which serial port did you plug it into -- /dev/ttyS0 (DOS's COM1) or /dev/ttyS1 (DOS's COM2)?
You can use "setserial" in probe mode (e.g., "setserial /dev/ttyS0") to find out what the current settings are for a serial device. You need to have serial support in the kernel or loaded as a module for this to work. Beyond that ... it is easier to help if you say more than "cant succed" about what you tried and what went wrong.
