This was a problem with some of the USB Modems. Check to see if the Modem requires a firmware update. You will need a Windows computer to update the firmware on it. <http://www.three.com.au/cs/ContentServer?c=Page&pagename=Three%2FPage%2FBusinessVideoCallingTemplate&cid=1215747787891> If you fan is running high, means the CPU & Temp are running extremely high, which isn't healthy for your MacBook.
