You need to run wwwoffle -online to start fetching pages when online. How are you starting wwwoffle, by /etc/ppp/ip-up.local ? You have to start wwwoffle (it will check if online and will go to offline mode if there is no internet connection) and then run wwwoffle -online when online. If online, wwwoffline when restarted will automatically start fetching (which is what is happening). Please add wwwoffle -online to your /etc/ppp/ip-up.local and wwwoffle -offline to your ip-down.local section.
