Two things. Your modem is packing it in
when it gets hot or your server is shutting you down when there is no " keyboard "
action. If you use A.O. hell that is normal.

Did anyone else get hooked by the underline on Solutions? Why are some words underlined like that? What you get above is an eBay auction for all kinds of 'solutions'. LOL


My modem/ISP kicks me off, too, sometimes after only a couple of minutes. I use Stay Live 2000 to keep me connected. It also keeps my system clock set correctly. It's free. It helps a lot, but I think sometimes Juno just drops load to keep down the traffic. I just reconnect and keep going. HTH

BOB:- No idea why the underline,

The fact that when I reboot I can keep my connection is the thing that throws me, modem would still be warm so cannot be overheating problem.

Thanks for your advice, I`ll try it.

The underlines are links to stuff. Let your mouse hover on the link and you should get a little window telling you what it's about. It's just another way for the site to make a few bucks. It's an on again - off again sort of thing. Don't click em and theres no problem.
