I had problem with this too. I tried another solution - in
/etc/ppp/ip-up.local (or any other script that is executed after connection
to internet) put these lines:

sleep 8
service wwwoffled restart
service wwwoffled online

and it should work fine (8 second sleep should be enough, if not, try 10-12).
