I am having trouble staying connected to AOL. I have used AOL for 2 years and never had this problem. I used to leave my computer signed in 24/7 and never got kicked off and now for the past few days I can leave it on and have no activity for a couple of hours and go back and I've been kicked off and a message reads that I've been kicked off due to inactivity. Does anyone have any answers.. Best Regards, prcook

Does your computer have a sleep mode?

Does your computer have a sleep mode?
Not sure, I am pretty new at all of this.. I've had a computer for 2 years but I have only recently started really getting on it. Thanks for the help. I'll try to find out about the sleep mode. Thank You, prcook

Probably because the lack of bytes being sent, you are being disconnected, you can try using TCPoptimizer from SpeedGuide.net :: Your Guide to Broadband (http://www.speedguide.net), and move the bar to 56k, then click on optimal settings. Save, and it should help.
