Paul,
This is not a property of "chat" as it may seem from your post.
I believe that Dante will find a solution looking at the pppd options
(command man pppd ) where the options are set in file /etc/ppp/options
It seems to me that he may need one of the lcp- options, quite possibly
lpc-restart . The parameter (time in seconds until the request times
out) is 3 by default. See what happens if you brutally raise it to 15
None of this has anything to do with which interface you use to launch
pppd, be it a direct chat command or an indirect chat built by wvdial or
kppp or you-name-it.

So I'm wondering if there's some setting that
specifies how long the PPP daemon should wait for a
connection before declaring "No Carrier" - and if
there is, if there's also some way to change that
setting.
If you use chat instead of wvdial, then there is.
