I'd guess about 20% of all their packets end up there :) So take your tent.... you could be there a while.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,9690711 Tue, 16 Mar 2004 07:30:28 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,9687144 valleygirl : Hiya
Firstly, thanks for the reply's.Yes I contacted their online tech support who sent me a list of things to try which I did, but did not work.I tried a few things last night and have managed to stay on so far without babysitting it.I ran a TraceRoute which seemed ok.I installed Nortons Utilities, disabled my firewall (bad move I know) made some changes to my p2p program and reconfigured my network settings.I dont know which one has worked (unless it disconnects tonight) so its process of elimination I guess.:huh:

P.S. If anyone finds my packets can you return them please ;)]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,9687144 Mon, 15 Mar 2004 20:31:12 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,9683441 laffalot : Have you tried contacting tech support? What I would do is not tell them you are using P2P make something up, eg some legit download, and say that you cannot stay connected longer than the 2 hours. Mention that you have tried this at various times and it always happens.

Then you can state that your always on connection is not always on and you want some explanation why it is not.

Is it possible that there could be some arrangement between AOL and line suppliers/phone companies to restrict this type of use? Just a shot in the dark, and probably missing by a mile. Just being my usual cynical self.

Get with a proper service provider and the problem will go away.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,9667424 Sat, 13 Mar 2004 14:49:22 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,9644901 valleygirl : Hi, My problem is this.
