Gee, I also had this problem.  I was/am using a NEC2430 Hayes
compatible modem.  My solution was to create a new entry in the
/usr/lib/uucp/modemcap (that's the modem profile you're asking
about).  My new entry was a duplicate of the hayes entry, except
that I added a bunch of 5 second delays after dialing and I changed
the name to "NEC|nec|ne".  I also changed L-devices to refer to
the NEC modem rather than the hayes.

I am not on my 3B1 right now, so I don't have the modemcap
entry in front of me, but if you email to me at my 3B1 address
(...!pttesac!Marnix!vanam), I will gladly email you a copy.
