I guess that I have tried just about everything but I will
pop off and try your strings and get back in a mo !
(I should say to you that the same modem is being used
to connect to my ISP via MS$ Windoze and send this eMail
so I can't see why FreeBSD is having such a problem).
Well I tried your Hayes strings as follows :-
AT
OK
ATZ
OK
AT&F1

AT&F
OK
ATDTxxxxxxx

In addition to Thomas Dean's suggestions, have you tried simply resetting
