MAYBE part of it is to do with the time the program gives to negotiate the
connection.
I once mentioned this and said the line dropped out while negitiating, and I
was laughed at by most people.
It has happened a few times since too. But I grin and bear it. I believe
there is a problem with the time the genesis gives for CD to occure before
dropping the line.
I also know that this is only half your problem here, but to solve one
problem it MAY be needed to increase the negotiation time to allow you to
study the next problem better.
(just watch the flames come back at me now)
