Using batch file to redial a DialUp connection

Create a batch file with the following content

@echo off

@echo "Disconnecting Connection"

rasphone -h "Vodaphone Broadband"

@echo "Waiting for 3 seconds"

timeout /t 3 /NOBREAK

@echo "Connecting to Connection"

rasphone -d "Vodaphone Broadband"

Just replace Vodaphone Broadband with your dial up connection name, and that should do it.

In case the timeout doesn't work, just replace it with "ping -n 10 127.0.0.1 > NUL", this will use

"ping" to create delay.
