You may need to enter in your modem initialization strings codes, ATDT etc:

  | The precise behavior of your modem can be modified by using a specific
  „  modem initialization string, to adjust the settings of your modem, or  
  „  to modify its default behavior. You may enter a modem initialization  
  „  string here.                                                            
  „                                                                           
  „  Many modems will work correctly without any special settings. If you    
  „  leave this field blank, the default string of "L0M0" will be used. This  
  „  turns the modem speaker off, so that you will not be bothered by the    
  „  noises that a modem makes when it starts a connection.

Maybe your modem(s) need to be told to wait for a dial tone before dialing?

For your modems to start handshaking before dialing is very, very odd.

Hope that helps :-)
