If you haven't already go into your network connections
in control panel. Then select the internet connection
type you have (dial-up model, ethernet, etc...). Right
click on that connection type you have and choose
properties. Somewhere in there depending on the type of
Windows version you have there should be a setting for
idle time. Even though your not sitting idle your
connection still might terminate. I had the same problem
and had to tell my computer not to terminate the
connection when idle. Feel free to e-mail me directly in
the future if you wish to. Good luck.
