49291 2002-05-17 08:40:00 I am running windows XP. and using netscape 6.2 I find that i keep getting thrown off the net, when my computer has been idle for 20 minutes. I tried to call Xtra, but they were not much help. I was wondering how i can change the setting so that, it will keep me connected. (annoying when downloading large files)
thanks

I think that your dial up setting has been set to disconnect when idle. Go to dial up settings, right click on Xtra connection icon and select properties. Click on dialing and uncheck 'disconnect when idle'. Another thought could be if you have Firewall that would lock out internet when screensaver kicks in.
Good Luck
