This "Slow death of the dial-up" is common, and actually all you need to do is disconnect and reconnect. I sometimes get it to work by turning my (external) modem on and off; not an option if you're using the internal modem. Most often it's got nothing to do wit either the modem, your Mac or the ISP but the connection; ie: it's the phone company's fault.

Someone posted a question very similar to this on the G-books list last week, and someone posted a link to a program that's supposed to help with this. Unfortunately the archives with the answer aren't posted yet. Anyone else remember the name of the program?
MacaRa Modem Magic. It's shareware but if you are using dial up it is a great tool.
