I had the same problems with NTL. Try WVdial - it auto-redials and it doesn't drop the interface (or normally connections) when redialing.

I am on unmeted internet via NTL UK. This works OK except after 2 Hrs on line NTL stops sending data but does not drop the line. This is a NTL thing, however not dropping the line causes me problems when I want to download large files. I need the line to be dropped and then the downloader to re-dial, giving me another 2Hrs of download time. At present I have setup dial on demand, which works great, so I am halfway there. Does anyone know of a downloader that will drop and re-dial every couple of hours or a work around to do this ? All help much appreciated Dave -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
