Check dmesg but if your modem doesn't start up in multiplex mode you
will need to issue an AT+CMUX command first. So the usual sequence is
write AT+CMUXblah [see GSM spec/modem command info]
TIOCSETD
GSMIOC_GETCONF
[modify anything needed]
GSMIOC_SETCONF
The defaults uses are the T1/T2/N2 from the spec, we are not the
initiator, and using encoding 1 (ie HDLC/LAP like), 64byte MRU/MTU.
So at the very least you'll want to set initiator to 1 so that we start
issuing SABM messages at the modem to enter mux mode.

That would be good.
