I work at a city 100 Km from my home and face the problem at home only. I go
home only on weekends so will send you the output this weekend.

Can I just replace the binary modem-manager with a simple script and rename
it to modem-manager?

0) cd /usr/sbin
1) mv modem-manager orig.modem-manager
2) Create a script /usr/sbin/modem-manager :
#!/bin/bash
./orig.modem-manager --debug $* > /home/username/modem.log

Thanks,
Elison
