I had same problem and was stuck for long
Have now a workaround, courtest the list
in ip-down script,
delete the (ppp) default route
rmmod ppp
insmod ppp
This will work.
There are other workaround which are more complicated
basically the problem is some processes still hanging around with the ppp
line and the modem connection not getting timed out.
