DD-WRT PPPoE Automatic Reconnect does not take place after extended DSL outage

Description

I'm using RT-N13U, BrianSlayer? build 18024. I'm setup to use PPPoE with my ADSL in bridged mode.

Yesterday I had an ISP outage for about 6 hours and lost connectivity/sync. After 6 hours the ADSL line was restored and my ADSL MODEM automatically restablished DSL link/sync.

However the DD-WRT router did not try to reconnect automatically (login) at all (I wasn't at home for 24 hours). when I got back I had to manually click on connect a couple of times before it established the connection.

Why isn't it automatically trying to reconnect infinitely until it succeeds?

I know when there is a temporary outage or I manually reboot the modem it tries to reconnect for a few minutes, but during an extended outage it stops reconnecting (logging in) after a while.

How can I configure this to reconnect indefinitely until it succeeds?
