I took a look at some possibilities: what do you think about an option
that instructs Radiator to close the database connection after the
clientlist update? Then there would not be problems with firewall
mangling the connection. I have not discussed the option here yet, but
this is something I have thought about.

Another option for you would be to make the updates more frequent so
that the firewall does not think the TCP connection is idle.

As I wrote Radiator tries to detect and recover from unexpected
connection problems so the crash problem seems to come from lower
levels, which means debugging is much harder.

Thanks!
