Uhm, I think I finally get what you mean by "restarting". You're trying to
bring up the interface (and the routes) by issuing ifup blah blah
blah....that would be the (partially) wrong way of doing it. First off,
bring up the interface using the ifconfig command as in "ifconfig hdlc0 <ip
address> netmask <netmask> <other options> up". That would bring the
interface up. Next add the static routes using the route command as in
"route add -net <network address> <etc. etc. etc.>". For more info do a
"man ifconfig" and "man route".

Are you sure its a proxy server (e.g. SOCKS) or just a cache server (e.g.
Squid)? In any case, their dictating what you can and cannot do with the
line you supposedly leased from them and therefore IMHO, the line STILL
isn't working. Then again, maybe that's what you want.
