Hasham,

First of all you would need to have Development Tools installed.  If
there would way for you to have internet access on that machine
# yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
to install a compiler and some needed libraries.  Otherwise, you would
have to hunt them down or install from install DVD if it is at hand.
Then a kernel-devel package for your running kernel would need to be
installed.  Again with internet connection ready, you would do a
# yum install kernel-devel
and install the required package.

After this, you would have to hunt down the package I have suggested
previously and extract the file and proceed to read the install
file/README to proceed.  However, the compiler and kernel-devel
package need to be installed if the modem driver is to have a chance
to work on your machine.

Hope this helps in some way,

Antonio
