I have been unsuccessful in keeping the link
up for extended periods. From the Client side
they want the link always up, from the server
side this may not be feasible - from the
feedback.

I assume from your feedback that the Livingston
will redial and establish the link - what needs
to be done on the livingston side? Is this the
area in PMConsole for dialback?

Thanks

--------------include-----------------------------------I've been doing this off a PM2. Sometimes it will
stay connected for more than a week. Other times,
it will drop the connections several times a day.
I imagine this would be highly dependent on the
telco and the quality of your lines.

When it disconnects, it usually reconnects in under
two minutes. (The Portmaster typically waits more
than a minute before it attempts to redial. I'm
not sure why it waits this long.)

In what way precisely have you been unsuccessful?
