Win98 & WinME using NETBEUI running MYOB Premier. The network will last about 10min then drop the connection. One session lasted 4hours. Shutdown and restart the connection comes back online then drops out again while your working?

If its a domain structure(i guess this since u said its a network); try removing and then again adding to the domain.

Check that NETBIOS is bound to NETBEUI.

Alternatively, bin NETBEUI and use TCP/IP.

Although, you shouldn't need to because NETBEUI is a faster and more efficient non routable protocol, but it may assist you in finding where the problem lies, if the network works ok with TCP/IP, you know something is wrong with the setup or binding of the network properties.

Because this tractor bussines is out in the bush and not down the road, when I make my next visit I need it to be productive. Yes I've tried both TCP/IP and NeTBEUI with same result. I'm going to try a crossover cable, it may be a buggered HUB.
