I beg to differ. The version of openwrt under development uses the same exact rp-pppoe package that we use to manage the pppoe connection. Note that this is different than the pppd package that they use in the Whiterussian releasees. The pppoe-start script is the un-modified script from Roaring Penguin, not a special script for Astlinux. It would probably be better to use another tool (such as mon) to monitor the connection then restart it if it's not up.
