These are the PPP stacks talking to eachother, saying that it is going to
disconnect and then getting an ACK back from the Portmaster. It isn't the
modems.

This means that the PM3 modem was not told by the client modem that
they wanted to log off. It may have talked to the PM3's PPP stack and
told IT that it was logging off but didn't hang up the modem with +++
