You should check the thread here about the SSC to make sure the DIP switches really are correct. There are tested setups posted. I don't have a IIgs anymore, so I can't directly help with this issue. See here for details on the IIgs setup:

If you can call out from this machine and connect to other BBS's then the WiModem232 itself is fine, and that would also prove that the SSC and IIgs serial interface are working.
The pinout for the WiModem232 is 100% exactly the industry standard for a modem (they are all the same). MAKE SURE you are using the proper cable for your IIgs! MAKE SURE you are not using a NULL modem cable! YOU DEFINITELY do not want DSR going to CD!
Type that Init string into your terminal program and see if it comes back with an error. That is a bunch of odd settings for sure (see link above for the normal init string used with terminal software, which would be the same for a BBS). Pay particular attention to the polarity information as that might apply to the BBS program you are using. Getting characters echo'd back to you can be normal, depending on the setup... the ECHO is enabled (ATE1).
The WiModem232 is a 100% exact Hayes modem emulation. This is just like plugging a real Hayes modem into your computer. So, if there is a Hayes modem driver, select that for use with the WiModem232.
