I have a connection to the internet via a 56k modem. When I use my Windows
95 machine I can stay connected for over 1 day without any activity. One of
my ISP's does not drop the connection at all. The problem is that Linux
seems to be dropping the connection after a mere 15 minutes. I have read
some of the HOWTO's and they also confirm that the system drops carrier
after a specify time. Where and how do I change this.
