Dear all, since I'm connected to a fastweb client network (WOW- FI) and I'm facing the common problem of disconnection after 15 min i post my solution here.
I paste all my configuration so that you can check it and compare with your config.

In the last part i listed only the two symbolic links i'm interested to.
As you can see the tool check both openwrt.org and google.com with ping and, if it fails, touch a file, counts up to a certain number and reset the wifi.
After a some attempts it also reboots the fonera.
I'd like to pose just a couple of questions to the experts of the forum:
- Is it better to use the wifi or the ifup wwan command to restart the wifi?
- Do you have any suggestion for the whole scheme?
Hope it helps and thank you in advance.
Regards
