You would need to restart the ppp connection in the ADSL modem. You can do that either by telnet (most ADSL modems should have telnet access) or through through the web admin interface. Both these methods can be automated. If you prefer telnet, you would use something like expect (http://expect.nist.gov/). For the web admin panel route, something like Mechanize (http://search.cpan.org/dist/WWW-Mechanize/lib/WWW/Mechanize.pm). I used the 'expect' utility to restart my ADSL modem at 12AM and 8AM, for free download hours. I am sure it can used to restart the ppp connection too.
