That is the default when a modem gets in a "stuck state", it can be changed
router(config)#modem recovery action ?
disable Mark the modem bad
download Recover by firmware download
none Do not try to recover
Your only real option is disable, and then write a script to monitor the
modems in "Bad" state - but this might not be what you want.
