Have you tried the demand option? This keeps the network interface present over a reconfiguration.
Doh...after sending my original email I decided to add idle and demand options to my peers file so the connection wouldn't be up all the time (been meaning to that for a while anyway). I read the man pages to see what arguments they needed and saw that demand keeps the network interface in between connections. That appears to be working although the ConfReq's are still coming and the connection is averaging about 0.2 minutes up. I had no idea that the demand option would keep the ppp interface. I feel silly for putting up with this for over a year and the whole time a simple pppd option would work around it.
