The iRDA is only for the remote control. It cannot be configured for infrared networking for example. The modem is a Conexant HD Softmodem. Here is the Windows driver:

It has been quite a few years since I tried to configure a modem on Linux. In the day I used to use Linuxant which is kind of like ndiswrapper with wireless and runs the Windows driver in some kind of a package.
