I suggest that this is a question which your ISP would be in the best position to help you with.

A few more details would help but, here are some suggestions. If you are using outlook express make sure the hang up after sending and recieving is not checked by going to tools, options, and then the connections tab and the hang up box should be ubchecked. Next, would look in start, settings, control panel, internet options, select the connections tab, click on you default dialup connection, select properties, and the advanced and make sure your disconnect if idle is unchecked, and you disconnect if connection is uneeded. Hope this helps.
