According to the description, this isn't exactly what I'm looking for:

a) My ISP uses LCP Echo Requests, they just fail periodically;
b) There's nothing in the logs (with that verbal diarrhea called 'debug'
turned on) at *all* about re-establishing a new connection, or the failure
of attempting to do so;
c) My ISP (please correct me if I'm wrong, ISP) doesn't necessarily limit
the number of allowed connections, so in theory, shouldn't be rejecting new
connection requests.

I'll give it a shot, though.
