[ale] Routes that fade away...

I have just set up a RedHat 4.2 internet gateway for our internet
connection.  I have aquired a dedicated 33.6 dialup account with a
static IP.  It works great....except(you knew this was coming), every
couple of hours for no apparent reason the default route to the Net just
disappears.  I don't know if this is caused by line noise, just enough
to drop the route, but not enough to drop the line, or some other
problem.  I am wondering a couple of things.  Has anyone seen this, and
is there a way to fix it, and barring that, can I monitor for it some
how, and have the route automatically reestablished if a drop is
detected.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Tory,
