i used to work for an ISP and most of the dialups were disconnected for idle time after 15m. my solution was something like: ping -i 60 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the router of the isp. it was working 99% of the time.In most cases that was happening in the places where dialups were going on ASCEND MAX routers. maybe this will help alex On Tue, 5 Oct 1999, J McKitrick wrote: > I'm having a problem with both of my ISP's.
