Make sure that callback services are not active. Depending on your phone service you may ahve to press a different strin of digits to disable it.

Could be something as simple as your ISP is too busy to take calls so when you phone it you don't get a dial-tone. Try calling the ISP number from your phone and see if you get an answer. Otherwise, simply turning the modem off for a minute or two and trying again can be a remarkably effective technique.
