My dial-up connection, disconnects me automatically, how can I change that?

Answer 1

Try this... On the tools menu of Internet Explorer click on TOOLS> INTERNET OPTIONS.
Select the CONNECTIONS tab. Then highlight your dial up connection in the box, and click on SETTINGS.

Under DIAL UP SETTINGS click PROPERTIES
Click on the OPTIONS TAB and change the selection "IDLE TIME BEFORE HANGING UP" to 'NEVER'.

Also, if you are using Outlook or Outlook Express you need to change a few settings in those programs as well.
Open Outlook or Outlook Express.
Click on TOOLS then OPTIONS.
Select the MAIL SETUP page, and uncheck the box at the bottom that says HANG UP WHEN FINISHED WITH A MANUAL SEND RECEIVE.

Hope that helps.

Net Zero has a habit of doing that after exactly three or exactly four hours. there's no way to change it unless you get cable internet.
