Hi,

Recently we got the problem that one or more modems are hanging.
I need to power them off and on so that they will operate again.

If I type show sessions the port which hangs shows:

Port User Host/Inet/Dest Type Dir Status Start Idle
---- --------------- ---------------- ------- --- ------------- ------ ------
S9 - - Log/Net In USERNAME 0 0

If I make show s9 I get that in the active configuration of that port the
modem is NOT CONFIGURED.

Active Configuration Default Configuration
-------------------- ---------------------
Port Type: Login/Netwrk Login/Netwrk (Dial In) (Security)
Baud Rates: 115200 115200,115200,115200
Parity: none none
Flow Control: RTS/CTS RTS/CTS
Modem Control: on on
Modem Config: Not Configured mt2834zdx
-----------------

We mainly use USR COURIERS and Multitech(only 4) modems but it happend on
both the
couriers and on the multitechs.

For the couriers we use the following init string: AT&F1S0=1M0&W
For the multitechs we use: AT&FS0=1M0&W0

I cannot reset the port and the phone line is busy when I call it.

Where can the problem be?

Thanks,

Christian
