You might also try moving the modem to another phone connection further
away.  If you use a wireless LAN this should be fairly easy to do.

Lon,

Is this modem an external device? If so, have him to take some aluminum foil
and wrap the modem up good, shileding it, just letting the wires come out.
Take a jumper lead and attach one end to the foil and the other to a good
known ground. Try it out and see if the modem kicks out. That will tell if
the problem is from an emmited RF killing the modem or it's coming in
through the wiring. There shouldn't be any RF with the amp in idle but who
knows?
