Russ and I have been fighting similar challenges. We both want to
leverage MM, and we want to do everything possible to maintain a
stable "always on" connection. Aleksander - did you notice anything
in the debug logs I had provided in my "connection instability" thread
that gave any indication as to why the disconnects were occurring?
I've not noticed any change in behavior with the ebc766 version.
I agree it would be excellent if we can incorporate additional logic
into MM to automate the re-up when the bearer status changes, but I'd
also like to get to the root of the disconnects so we can try to
minimize them.
I find it interesting that when the bearer state changes the network
interface still maintains its IP address. There seems to be a
disconnect between MM and the resulting network interface. I'm sure
most of this is my ignorance to how MM is working behind the scenes.
