Mark K6FG,=20 Dx4win has not provisions to "stay alive" or ping the cluster. What has = worked very well is to download VE7CC's program AR users (http://www.ve7cc.net )and run this in the background. It will connect = you to your telnet or packet cluster and will track the disconnects, = user sets the value for "stay alive " , Rx inactivity, etc.. You also = have complete control over you spots as to what bands, modes, plus what = countries you what your spots to come from ( K, XE,VE) or "all". The connection is easy and explained on his site. Dx4Win connects to = port 127.0.0.1:7300 (internal loop in windows PC) instead of your = cluster provider. and this program feeds your DX4win. Have went from many disconnects to connected for days, try it you will = like it. Don K7OSE
From: Mark <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [Dx4win] Telnet Disconnect I connect to the Cluster on broadband cable through Telnet within DX4WIN = 6. I find that I get disconnected after only a modest time of being=20 connected. This happens regardless of the Telnet site I use. I am able to reconnect easily and I believe that my cable connection and = signal level remain at adequate levels. Does anyone have any suggestions?
