As someone suggested, you might try using different firmware. There are a lot of options for these linksyses. DD-WRT is definitely one of them but I personally prefer "tomato". James Harper wrote: >> I think that makes any Bacula job longer than 10 minutes impossible >> > using > >> th

Aaah, I've finally figured it out. The very common Linksys WRT54G v5 router IS dropping inactive sockets after exactly 10 minutes. I verified this through a process of elimination. Any time the Linksys router was used, I'd get a socket drop at 10 minutes (wireless or ethernet cable included)
