I've patched l2tpd in order to adjust timeouts using exponential backoff.
I've also added optional logging of these adjustments.
I tested the new version using a 33.2 kbps dialup connection and retries
went between 3 to 5, rising the timeout up to 16 seconds. I am not sure if
the problem is due to the dialup connection or to the windows L2TP/IPsec
client.
How do you want me to send you the changes?

Regards.
