I have the same problem with user's who call my mailbox at 2400 baud.
I have a T2500 connected to a 386 with running Xenix 2.3.2 GT on it.
Once some of the users logged into the system (with lightspeed 2400c or
patriote modems) they will hang after a while being online and doing
nothing special. Their modem speed LEDs start to flash and there is no
other possibility for them but to hang up the phone line and reset their
local modems. The T2500 does not recognize these hangups and stays online
until I kill the running processes attached to the device.
The problem increased after having built in the new revision of the  modem's
operating system a few weeks ago.

Any suggestions?
