I am NOT a programmer so I don't really know how to modify the script at all. The script does work however and will establish my connection if lost until I can get back to the machine and restart my PPP manually. I would LOVE it if the thing didn't eat all of my CPU. Perhaps someone that knows how to do scripting can come up with a way to keep the process in the foreground. If need be, I can post the script to the list again.
