did you configure linux to know that the modem uses IRQ4 ? COM2
(/dev/ttyS1) uses IRQ3 by default, and you need to configure the driver to
know it uses IRQ4 instead, most likely using 'setserial' (man setserial
for more info).

i've seen a case (or few) long ago (and under the other OS) where an
incorrect IRQ configuration caused a 1-2 minutes delay for getting a
response to 'ATZ' commands, so the symptom sounds similar.
