The adsl.sh script does exactly the same thing, when you have these
options in rc.conf it conflicts with the adsl.sh as both try to 
initialize the
modem and dial. The adsl.sh worked fine for me, just make sure you
use only one method not both.

Please accept my apologies for not reading your email thoroughly.
It could be a problem with the firmware file you currently have.
Try to download a fresh copy from:
http://download.ethomson.com/download/speedmgmt.tar.gz
and replace the mgmt.o with the one in this package.

Take a deep breath, it took me 3 days of searching to get this
modem working decently :)

Good luck.
