I am using iijppp with dial-on-demand.  The connection comes up up to
a dozen times a day.  Once every couple of days ppp gets itself into a
state where this appears in the log file:

07-15 16:33:09 [7084] ** 1 Too many ECHO packets are lost. **

This message is raised immediately after packet mode is entered, and causes
the link to drop.  The modem is immediately re-dialed, and the same cycle
repeats until I kill the ppp program.  Re-starting ppp clears the
problem.

What does this mean?

Is there any way of clearing the problem without killing ppp?
