Where is the disconnect occurring? At the server or ADSL modem? If the ISP shuts down the connection to the modem. the server might not know about it. I'm almost sure that the adsl modem tells the controlling software of any status change, such as the connection going down and the cause.
Most ADSL connections are connected via Ethernet. There is no such signal on Ethernet.
If that were the case, it would be a stand alone "adsl router", and it would handle itself completely. The OP would not be asking us how to configure the router. And anyway, those routers do reconnect automatically. Notice that the OP specified that the DSL connection is handled by openSUSE. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
