Don't laugh, but try a different modem as well. I have this alomost matched
set of old v.32bis modems that I acquired, and for some reason they could lock
up FreeBSD solid if one was in the machine with my newer 28.8 modem. This
was just using kermit, and the problem didn't happen under Windows 95 or OS/2.
