Terminal services over ADSL

[Matt]

Hi,
I am hosting an application on a Windows 2000 Terminal
Server via an ADSL connection. I am having timeout issues
with idle sessions (sessions that have not had any user
interaction for 5mins or more) timing out and
disconnecting the session. I have checked all the
settings in both active directory and terminal services
configuration and they all look OK. Are ther any other
overriding settings elsewhere or any tools available to
help me diagnose this problem. Inboud clients ar
connected via either ADSL or dial up connections.

Cheers
Matt

You probably need to enable keep alives or adjust the
value of tcpmaxdataretransmissions...

What ADSL router are you using. I had the same problem and was using Dlink
DSL 500's and 504's. I updated to the latetest firmware and the problem went
away.
