I could reproduce this problem with ISDN and ipppd. When the connection seems to be blocked on the second dial, then there is a duplicate entry in the routing table:
{harri@bilbo:harri 1} netstat -nr Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface 146.225.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 ippp0 146.225.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 ippp0
The default route disappeared somehow.
I am not sure whether this is a kernel problem or a problem with ipppd.

Harri
