  1. You should be able to query the information via modem manager with the mmcli command in Terminal. For example:

    mmcli -L

Found 1 modems:
    /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/4

    Note the 4 on the end of the path. Now you can request more details:

    mmcli -m 4 

/org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/4 (device id '7d79202d39af4d0e8533a15c8629d4431644676')

  ...

    The serial devices are located at the bottom: ttyAMC0 and ttyACM1. If you have multiple ttyXXXX locations listed, you may have to test each to determine the correct one.
