Ok it's  a Speedtouch USB Modem.

The module is included in the Fedora-Kernel (speedtch.o) but you will 
need the managment utility from Thomson/Alcatel. Configuration of the 
pppd depends on your provider.
I know it just from Austria:

module:
pppoatm
usb-u(o)hci (depends on USB -Controller) or the pedant in the 2.6 Kernel 
if you use it
ppp_deflate

software:
pppd with pppoatm plugin
speedmgmt (management-utility from Thomson/Alcatel)

But I have no experience with AMD64
