Manually controlling dialup and hangup of the Base Station's dialup modem from a cabled Mac must be done using the third-party Jave based utility found at:

Thanks for that Bob. If it works well it saves my bacon. I had devised a procedure which was someting of a pain. It involved setting the based station for automatic login and then either running a utillity called ppp connect or restarting the base station using the Airport utility.

Unfortunately this meant that sometimes a connection was made when I didn't want to (at startup for example),
