Call for help:

Distro: RHLinux 7.1 
Kerenl 2.4.2-2
Thinkpad A20p
Modem: PCI, Lucent WinModem 56K
Chipset Vendor: 11c1, device: 0449

I traced out the modem driver installation guided mostly from 
linmodems.technion.ac.il ; and http://www.dwrees.co.uk/linmodem.php
The driver that is most approperiate for my modem ltmodem-5.99b.tar.gz
 I got it from here:
http://www.physcip.uni-stuttgart.de/heby/ltmodem/
in addition to the supported documents DOCs.tgz

The Problem:

I did the connection through the RP3 (GNOME). The Debug's log produces:

Looks like a welcome message.

also I executed the /sbin/ifconfig, the results are:

is highly appreciated. Thanks.
