That can be avoided by editing /etc/rc

Are you doing ppp-off (when you are finished)?
Does it give you any message?

After you do the nslookup, check the routing table again 
to see if the default route is still there.  Also, do the

------------------
ping 64.136.21.200
------------------
What does that say?
