If the modem appears to be wedged, it usually means that it's not
talking to the host (and HylaFAX) at all. The usual thing to try is to
make sure:

    1.  the cables are connected properly
    2.  you're using the correct device.

The next thing you can do is to increase the debug level for that
particular port and see the chat script between the modem and HylaFAX.
In some cases you'll see what the offending command that's causing
your modem to freeze.
