Try slapping an ATM0 in your modem init string. If persistent
settings work on your modem, or you just leave it on all the time,
you may also find that opening a minicom or something to it and:

  ATM0
  AT&W0

does it more permanently...

Most likely yes, though a bit difficult to tell exactly what with just
that information. Post the script file so we can see what could be
wrong.
