Can someone please explain this dialing error?

Hi everyone, :)
	Every now and then when I get my smoothwall box to dial
out to my ISP the connection fails with the following error.

Connection terminated.
Receive serial link is not 8-bit clean: 
Problem: all had bit 7 set to 0

Then I dial again and it works fine. 
Is this relating to an authentication error or 
my modem or something else?

The full passage from /var/log/messages is below
just in case it makes any difference. 

Thanks everyone,

Nathan Millhouse.
