This is possibly to do with your machine's USB. I have observed
similar behaviour on my FreeBSD machine. Occasionally I lose my
connection, and part of the remedy is to unplug my Manta, wait
30 seconds, then plug it in again.

If I unplug before killing pppoa{2,3} and modem_run my machine
locks up tight as it panics and reboots. The console always reports
something has happened on the USB when the Manta is disconnected.
