I haven't used a modem for a long time now, but you are right about the
wvdial configuration file /etc/wvdial.conf, from there you can set the
volume either by
SetVolume = 1
or specify the appropraite modme command in the Init string such as
Init2 = ATZ&L0
now, you still need to do a bit of homework and verify the above :)
