How do I set my Internet Service Provider (ISP) time-out settings to the maximum allowed time?
To do this (in Windows): • Click on Start, Settings, and then click on Control Panel. • Double-click on Internet. • Click on the Connection tab near the top of the Internet window. • Under Dial-up settings, choose the service you use to connect to the Internet. • Click on the Settings button. • Click on the Advanced button near the bottom. You should see a check box in the window that appears that says “Disconnect if idle for _____ minutes.” • You can set this higher than its current value, but do not uncheck the option.
