I took a solution mentioned in this article and worked perfectly for my 
Neo 1973.

 killall gsmd

 nc -l -p 5000 < /dev/ttySAC0 > /dev/ttySAC0

Only conditions is that you have to use Openmoko distro. I'm using 
latest Debian distro and I have old OM lying on Flash. Under Debian my 
modem hangs after manually connecting via cu from Phone, so the hack 
above doesn't work. I suppose the problem is connected with multiplexing 
bug that Mickey mentioned, as multiplexing in Debian is enabled .

So I used OM and it worked well. I can call my Neo's GSM modem from any 
network machine.

Best regards,
