The normal IRQ for /dev/ttyS2 (Com3) is irq 4. If you specifically have
it jumpered to irq 3 instead, you will need to use setserial to tell Linux
that, and make sure you are not using a mouse or anything on ttyS1 (Com2)
or ttyS3 (Com4). Or is your modem really on ttyS1 (Com2). If it really
is on ttyS2 using irq 3, try this:
/bin/setserial /dev/ttyS2 port 0x3e8 irq 3 ^auto_irq ^skip_test autoconfig
Then see if 'setserial -bg /dev/ttyS2' shows the proper UART. Or test it
with 'minicom' set to that port and see if you get any response to AT
commands.
If that works, you could put that line in /etc/rd.c/rd.local
