You might check to see that your modem cable has the "hardware handshake"
wires connected.  Some modems will do the offline stuff ("ATDT etc")
without clear to send but start believing when they go on-line.  If you
do not have a hardware handshake cable, and have CTS/DTR handshaking
turned on, and the modem believes that an open wire is "don't go", then
you can get this freeze when you first try to go online.

Maybe it's time to post my Serial Port document again...
