Its hard to give a shoot in the dark... Anyways if you wanna get shoot, it sounds like a hardware problem.

There are many, many reasons why the port could have stopped working. You can try a different cable, and if that still doesn't work, it's probably just a bad modem. Replace it.

Did you notice any compontent around that could had been burnt? Or bad soldering?

How did you get these modems? someone just sent you them.. or you did lend it to someone.. and got it back faulty?
