To have on-demand still function, you will need to remove the down line,
as you are saying "restrict * * * * *" down which means all other times
its forced down. So you would write it as follows
restrict 17:00:00 03:00:00
up
restrict * * * * *
include /usr/lib/diald/standard.filter
which basically says between the hours of 5pm and 3am, force the
connection up. Since I havn't placed a up or down command following the
second restrict, I basically told it to be on-demand for all other hours
and days.
