Modem problem

[Frank Arnold]

I aaam trying to set up faxing in Kubuntu breezy and can't find
my modem. I ran wvdial from the command line and got the following:

root at frankhome:/home/franka# wvdial
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.54.0
--> Warning: section [Dialer Defaults] does not exist in wvdial.conf.
--> Cannot open /dev/modem: No such file or directory
--> Cannot open /dev/modem: No such file or directory
--> Cannot open /dev/modem: No such file or directory
root at frankhome:/home/franka#

Obviously I need help.
Where can I go from here?
