ttyS0 is not your modem, and ttyUSB0 is either the EM7455 DIAG port or
firmware upgrade port, depending on modem state. So this result from
wvdialconf is expected. Don't know the first thin about wvdial...
Please provide some useful info instead:
lsusb -v
will tell you whether the modem is detected and has booted properly, and
also which mode it is configured for.
mmcli -L
will show you a list of modems detected by modemmanger
mmcli -m X, where X is an index from the above list
will show you more details on the specific modem
Further debug steps depend on the results of these commands. You might
want to look at the generic ModemManager debug steps:
