You could try mgetty.
Mgetty is a ‘‘smart’’ getty replacement, designed to be used with hayes
compatible data and data/fax modems. Mgetty knows about modem initial-
ization, manual modem answering (so your modem doesn’t answer if the
machine isn’t ready), UUCP locking (so you can use the same device for
dial-in ...

From what you say (serial interface, AT command set), I think it would behave like a dial-up modem. Thus you could use something like wvdial or ppp to connect using it.
Also, this repo on GitHub looks relevant:
This repository serves to group together a bunch of scripts I've been writing to assist in the development process with the Telit 862GPS. They ...

The easiest way to use linux to answer the phone is with the Asterisk program. You should be able to yum install asterisk on your linux machine. You then connect an analog adapter to your network and connect your phone line through it. This will allow you to answer the call, see the caller id if the caller id information is sent from your LEC, record the ...

If you want to turn a serial port into a network interface, that is exactly what PPP (pppd) was designed to do. It'll work over anything that looks like a serial port to Linux. pppd supports sending out "chat text" which contains the necessary AT commands to setup and teardown the call. You'll probably want to make your own chat script for this device.

I wouldn't recommend using a typical data/voice modem for this.
Even 15 years ago, when modems were current technology and there was lots of competition for features and technology, they were a pretty low-grade way to do the sorts of things you're asking for. Now, after a decade of race-to-the-bottom activity exemplified by the near universal takeover of ...

If you loosen the requirement for using ttyUSB0 - ttyUSB31, then you may just have a possibility. What I've done is let udev create symlinks to the device nodes assigned by the kernel. You cannot reliably hardwire a physical device to use ttyUSB0, you can however reliably add a symlink ttyUSB001 to point to whichever device node you want. The trick here is ...

Doing a search on Google for this, I (hopefully) found the answer to your question on: Ubuntu Forums. It shows the exact steps to download the E353.tar.gz file and shows the instructions on how to install it.
Hope it helps.

You could try taking a look at mgetty, though I never tried anything of the sorts.
Smart Modem getty replacement Mgetty is a versatile program to handle
all aspects of a modem under Unix. This package includes basic modem
data capabilities. Install mgetty-fax to get the additional
functionality for fax. Install mgetty-voice to get the functionality

I'm with @Renan: it looks like this problem was fixed in newer kernels. (One such thread on LKML.)
The key error is the invalid interface number one. It means the USB driver sees the device, but it's numbering its features (interfaces) in a way the driver doesn't expect, and it can't cope. Googling around, you can find several cases where people are fixing ...

Wait—I see it. Two things:
You used ATTRS{product}=="6011" when you meant ATTRS{idProduct}=="6011" That missing id will break it. Copy-and-paste from udevadm info --attribute-walk to prevent typos like this.
Your pattern is wrong; it should be KERNEL=="ttyUSB[0-9]*". Its a (very limited) regular expression, so [0-15]* means "any of the characters 0–1 or 5, ...

[EDIT] I found a post with instructions - I'm not sure how current that is. It looks like you use Puppy's own Internet Connection Wizard (launched by an icon labeled "connect"), which has an option "Internet by dialup analog or wireless modem". That shows PupDial, which can be used to establish a connection using your modem.
Below is a description about how ...

As much as this question is very old and answered. I would like to add something further.
For USB modems, "cdc-acm" compliant USB modems will present themselves as a serial device. They are usually self contained and small, with all required hardware. Latest verisions of linux kernel has a module to support these kind of devices out of the box.
Some ...
