I already have that, but it starts even when I don't want it
E.g. Windows wants to get online without a user action and I want to stop it.
What are you trying to prevent by having todo pon and poff by ssh?

Time limit is set to a few minutes, but that has some disadvantages:
- when I want to stay offline , my system sometimes doesn't (see above)
- when I'm "thinking" too long in front of my system, pppd goes offline
Maybe this helps understanding my problem.
