I configured my dialup using netconfig and start/stop the connection using usernetctl. Specifically, I added the modemlights applet to my GNOME panel and set it to use these commands: /usr/sbin/usernetctl ppp0 up /usr/sbin/usernetctl ppp0 down Or you can use rp3 to control the connection if you have more than one dialup configuration.
