After further reading in the links David suggested I did a googel 'udev 
/dev/modem'
and alas there are a lot of vanishing modems. And there was how to solve the 
problem:
Short of putting ln /dev/ttyS0 /dev/modem into rc.local.

Quote
 I finally found the recipe I needed in a ubuntu forum, using google. What I 
needed was a file named 10-local.rules placed in the /sda3/etc/udev/rules.d 
subdirectory. All the file needed was the line following:

KERNEL="ttyS1", SYMLINK="modem"

Now the modem node in the /dev directory doesn't vanish anymore.
Unquote

Will try it on next reboot
