Will it boot OK with modem unplugged? Rules out other problems.
It is possible to edit a file & stop the animation during startup so you can see what is causing it to hang.
Can't for the life of me remember where it is though. Maybe someone can help here.
More info on the modem would help. ie model & type.

I did not ignore you suggestion.
i have search for something to tell you what is going behind the the boot loading screen but i didn't come with something useful so i asked people if they can help me in this.

I believe you can just press alt+F1 and it will show you what it's doing as it boots up. But does it do a hard hang? Does num lock change the num lock led? Is this a USB modem? If so what's the output of lsusb?

it not a hard hang the num-lock is still running & it's a usb modem
this is the output of lsusb:
