There are events beyond the ISP's control as to hangups. For today, now and on the planet Earth what you want does not exist.
Hi Folks,
I live in a rural area where no broadband, except satellite that I can't afford, is available. I am looking for an unlimited dial up service that will give me at least 14 to eighteen, preferably twenty-four, hours before it auto disconnects me.
Both Earthlink and Verizon claim they do not auto disconnect, but in spite of these claims, Verizon disconects me in seven hours, and Earthlink does it in twelve. Neither of these unlimited plans from either company is cheap. And, if I'm downloading a large file that cannot be resumed once the connection is broken, such as some audio files from my local library service, or some updates to prgrams and/or games, it it is very annoying.
Is there a way to keep a connection alive? Is there a service that meets the above requirements? Can anyone help? I'm at my wits end here.
Thanks.
~Ann
