RE: [STN] Connection Time out

[JohnLombardo]

Disconnect the STN box from the network, then wait the time-out period.  If it hangs up, then a machine on your internal network is sending traffic that you don't know about.  If it does not hang up, then your ISP is sending you traffic.  Some ISPs leak packets that they shouldn't (RIP packets, etc).  STN will reset the timer for ANY traffic -- even if that traffic is dropped. -----Original Message----- From: Dr. V.

I expected that when there is no internet traffic up to a number of minutes set as time-out, then modem connection should drop down. But it doesn't happen. Can you tell me how does it work ?   thank you   Vincenzo Liso   ============================================================ Half.com is the Smartest Place to Buy & Sell your CDs, DVDs Books, & Games!
