[Dx4win] Staying Connected to TELNET
Some have suggested checking your email every 5 minutes (?), and DX Telnet works with DX4WIN and has the Keep Alive function. I'd be interested in knowing if you have that problem with the K1TTT cluster. It seems VERY stable to me - I use satellite, and rarely ever get disconnected, even without using DXT's Keep Alive.

Hi All There is a keep alive function in the AR Cluster nodes if the sysop has it turned on. The K1TTT node does not have it activated. To check try the K8SMC node at 198.109.212.235 I had he same problem staying connected during low activiy hours, even with email checking every 8 minutes. 73 Phil K8MBY - Original Message - From: STU [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: DX4WIN POSTINGS Dx4win@mailman.qth.net Sent: Tuesday, November 05, 2002 12:05 AM Subject: [Dx4win] Staying Connected to TELNET Is there anyone out there that has a hard time staying connected to TELNET.

I use DX-Telnet through a cable modem (Road Runner) and don't have any problem staying connected. I did earlier, do to the way it was connected to my laptop, but that's another issue. I have the clusters that I use, set up to be pinged every 10 minutes as a keep alive. And, it works like a charm.

Ted I've been wondering why I have had problems and you don't. I'm also behind a router and the windows computer also has the ZoneAlarm firewall but that has not seemed to stop the DOS attacks. It's not a D-Link (Ugate 3000) but I've looked at the D-link and others and they are all pretty much the same. I'm experimenting with a new system that may eliminate the unwanted connections from various unknown urls. It's a Linux system with a very cool program called Win4Lin which allows you to actually _install_ Windows 98 so that it and windows programs are actually running under Linux - but they don't really know it. The best thing is that Windows then uses the networking facilities of Linux including a special stateful firewall that only allows connections to come in from the Internet if related to something I have initiated. This may stop all the DOS type interference because they are all initiated from the outside and should not be permitted through the firewall. It's running now and I should know in a day or so. My goal is to end up with a Telnet connection for spots that runs for weeks at a time! 73, Larry N2LA On Tue, 05 Nov 2002 09:46:03 -0500, Ted Sarah - W8TTS wrote: I use DX-Telnet through a cable modem (Road Runner) and don't have any problem staying connected.

Hi Larry, I think the main reason that I don't loose my cluster connections is because I use the ping (Stay Alive) option of DX-Telnet. Even on slow spot days, it pings once ever 10 minutes and keeps the connection active. I can stay connected for a VERY long time this way. 73 - Ted

I use DX Telnet with DSL and have no problems. The beauty of DX Telnet is that it let's you open as many connections as you want, so if one goes down, for what ever the reason, you still have others working. I normally keep two sites open and never have any problems as long as the Reconnect and Stay Alive functions are turned on. I hope this helps.

Hi Jim, It all depends on the filtering that you have setup on your nodes, and what kind of activity there is, and what good old Sol is up to. When the solar indexes are bad, I've seen an hour go by without a spot, I only look at North America and HF. I use W8GN, K8SMC, and others.

In my layman's view In the US, the cheap internet connections, including broadband ones such as cable internet, frequently use dynamically-assigned IP addresses that are leased to the user for a set period. In my case, though, it appears that I keep the same IP address and it is automatically renewed, as long as I'm not logged off when the lease expires. Then all bets are off. Also, my cable ISP does not allow me to maintain a server on my machine anyway. I know of one case, at least, where the cost for the identical non-broadband connection speed, but with a fixed IP address, was quoted at something like 3x greater. 73, Pete N4ZR Sometimes a tower is just a tower
