Thank you, a reload of the server solved the problem. I will keep monitoring
the modems however.

could be one of a few things, two comes to mind ...
- could be new modem firmware ready to be downloaded during maintenance
window period
but mostly likely,
- modems could have failed x amount of times, and as per configuration on
the box require the firmware to be redownloaded onto the chipset during
maintenance window to try and fix the errors..
some reading material regarding configuring and managing integrated
modems.. (might require CCO login)
