Verizon Novatel U760 Reconnect Problem

[Guest]

Got a strange problem with a Verizon Novatel U760 USB modem that works great until a disconnect happens. After the disconnect the Endian firewall tries to reconnect again. The connection will fail over and over again until I reboot the firewall. It seems to stabilize after that. The logs indicate that it is Verizon that is failing the connection by dropping it from their end. Rather frustrating. Does anybody have any experience with Verizon on this and what can be done to correct the problem. I'll paste some of my log from the RED interface to hopefully help out with a solution. I've removed the IP addresses from the log.
