Greetings, Anyone have experience with Sprint PCS phones and linux? Using the Vision service as internet connection. As those who have or do know the way it works is the connection disconnects on phone and reconnects when data is requested. This can cause some considerable lag times while it reconnects. The PPP link does not terminate however. To solve this ping is a usual way to. Just let a ping run to keep the connection alive. Ping does not seem to do the trick in Linux however. Ping seems to die at random times.. it just hangs. I have seen it hang at the 30th request and I have seen it hang at he 3,000th request. Running a Ping in windows works. (yeah, it-works-in-windows(tm)). Anyone know the difference in the ping in windows and linux? Is it a TCP Stack issue that makes this not work as well in linux?
