This could be a modem init string problem.  Possibly flow control?  Try
just loading the factory defaults for your modem (change the ATE1Q0^M^M to
AT&F) and see if you get better results.  (an aside: add &C1 to the AT&F,
and /dev/cuaa3 may start supporting CD)

Is this an external modem? What brand/model is it?

For a list of other settings to try, you can look here:

hmmm here's something else to try... send an extra carriage return after the last expect


Hope this helps...
