Im used to having good old cable but moved out into the sticks and can only have adsl and its really anoying because it isnt a permenent conection and keeps cutting off when I leave it. Is there any way round this? like with a conection tool or something. Ive tried adsl keepalive but I dont know if ive got it configered right because it dosent work. Also sometimes if wont conect and I have to restart to sort it out.
any help would be great thanks

Contact your ASDL support desk for help in verifying that the modem is set up correctly. I have a lan connected to internet via dsl. The lan is always connected.

you should check your settings, especially the "timeout and disconnect" one... usually set to 20mins in router/modem or even in browser and network settings...
Even though ADSL is supposed to be an always-on thing, there is still a process of 'dialing' to the server PPPoE etc, so it can be 'hang-the-call'
