What's the time stamp on that lockfile?  If you've rebooted and it's
still having issues, it's likely that something locked the modem,
and then exitted uncleanly, leaving the lockfile behind.

If it's old, you might remove it (it'd be a good idea to reboot then
too, to make sure nothing re-locks it), and try again.

HTH,

Benny
