In the webgui go to Diagnostics>edit file and load /etc/crontab
Then add the following line:

*       <reconnecthour> *       *       *       root killall mpd && 
/usr/local/sbin/mpd -b -d /var/etc -p /var/run/mpd.pid pptp

Then save that file. Reboot to make sure the new settings are reloaded. This is 
not officially supported and I have not yet tried that myself but got that 
information from Scott when I asked for that some time ago. I'm located in 
germany too and I'm affected by the ugly 24h-disconnects too. This way you can 
make sure the reconnect doesn't appear during officehours or during daytimes, 
what can be pretty annoying if you use VoIP or VPN.

Please provide feedback if that works for you. Not sure if this will handle 
dyndnsupdates too (maybe Scott can comment in this). If you could test that too 
that would be great.
