Jun 09 14:51:36.95: [ 3390]: MODEM TIMEOUT: reading line from modem

Looks like the modem doesn't timeout internally, so HylaFAX loses patience eventually. The modem's timeout is usually set via one of the S-registers, but timeout handling seems to be broken in some modems (for example, I once had a modem which wouldn't timeout when the destination is busy). In this case, try to get a corrected firmware from the manufacturer, or put up with it and remember that "check modem power" actually means "remote not responding" (which is what I did).
