Some thing going slower and the default 45 seconds for connection
are not enough I believe. Encrase that in the modem init string
using S register. Sadly I can not rumember the register but you
could see that from the modem's doc. It is S1 or S7... ex: Sn=60 or
Sn=90 should be OK... The number is seconds needed for negotiation.
