Keeping Broadband connection
We have to use BT broadband. When the broadband connection is not used for 10 minutes or so it disconnects. During much of the working day it can take up to 30 minutes to reconnect. Is there a program (like a screen saver) that will send random requests to the BT server to keep the connection. Many thanks
