More to the point, the driver might print 'modem' for tty00 just because
that's usually been the modem port, or because old Powerbooks had the
modem (a real one) on this port.
Check that you have a real modem, not a controllerless modem (HCF,
Conexant).

Switching speeds and such should have worked AFAIK.
