I discovered something strange after sending my disconnect solution. It does
no damage, but I don't have enough experience to explain what is happening.
Each time I re-connect using pptp, the ppp session name is incremented, so when
I want to disconnect the first time, I use the solution as I wrote. But the
second time, I have to change line 3 to:

ifconfig ppp1 down
and after that to ifconfig ppp2 down, etc.
