I'd get rid of routed.  If there's but one gateway on your segment
(and I'm assuming there is since you set a value for defaultrouter),
then I don't see any need to run routed.  Just do this:

	defaultrouter=204.161.116.254
	routedflags=NO

Probably means the kernel didn't detect the device on boot-up.  Do
this:

	dmesg | grep ^sio

If you see something like

	sio2 at 0x3e8-0x3ef irq 5 on isa
	sio2: type 16550A

then the kernel DID probe the device correctly and something ELSE is
wrong.

But, chances are, it didn't.  Edit your kernel config file and put in
the correct port address and IRQ values for the internal modem.  Then
configure, compile, and install the kernel and see if it works.

Is it set to auto-answer?  If it's a Hayes-type modem, you can set it
to answer on two rings by connecting to the modem with tip or cu and
entering these commands:

	ats0=2
	at&w

The first command tells it on which ring to answer, the second saves
the modem's state in nonvolatile memory so it'll have that setting
every time you turn it on or reset it.
