Sounds like your 3G connection is dropping, and taking VNC with it. This could be due to network policy or poor coverage. Have you considered establishing an SSH tunnel to an external server, then VNCing through that? It's a little more involved, but not too difficult. Bitvise Tunnelier is an excellent free application for managing SSH connections (including setting up tunnels) and you don't require a licence for individual use (although there's a 30 day trial period anyway regardless of licence qualification). The more frequent SSH traffic may force the connection to stay up if you're in a borderline reception area or your network enforces a disconnect policy after traffic dips below a threshold. Alternatively, have you tried doing something like establishing a constant ping to a server whilst connected, to see if the regular traffic keeps the connection alive? _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [email protected] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
