RE: [squid-users] Restart squid on Disconnect

having http_port at the default of "any address" is perfectly fine for
dialup use. It does not make Squid request any specific IP address but
will accept requests on whatever IP address your box currently have,
even if those addresses did not exists when Squid started.

The cause is somewhere else. Maybe you get assigned different DNS
servers when you redial or something, I do not know.
