We have a similar problem. We inherited a PM-3A-1T that had been boxed
for two years (S/N 2B00126) andvpurchased replacement modems for the
33K analog modems it came with. After running for about a day, the
modems would answer call but without an answer tone, just silence.
The first replacement box decided after a day to just not answer any
calls.
The second and third replacement PM3's exhibit the problem you
describe. After operating for a day (or recently longer), several
ports get stuck in the USERNAME state with no user connected to the
line; however the line remains off-hook. Due to the newer modems, we
run ComOS 3.8.2 (3.8 was very stable for us).
We never saw this problem with our other five PM-3A-2T boxes and
ComOS 3.8 (older 56K modems). Any idea why these ports occasionally
hang?
