I have the following in /etc/ppp/ip-down.d/reconnect:
(
sleep 5
while ! ifconfig | grep ppp0 >/dev/null 2>&1; do
if ! ps ax | grep '[0-9] /usr/sbin/pppd call dsl-provider' >/dev/null 2>&1;
then
pon dsl-provider;
fi
sleep 15
done
) &
"dsl-provider" should be replaced with the name of your connection (the
file in /etc/ppp/peers/). The script is executed as soon as the ppp
connection goes down and continually tries to reestablish it until it
succeeds.
