Try enabling lqr instead. It'll allow ppp to detect the dead link.
The only thing that can really be done is to get your ISP to tell you
why their ppp implementation is choking. It's possible that there's
a problem with user-ppp, but nobody that's reported this sort of
problem has been able to get a log from the peer :-(
