CMBO causes my modem to hang up!


Recommended Posts

As hte title says.

whenever I run CM the modem hangs up a minute or two in to the game (real time).

It's fine for setting a game up, and while waiting for a TCP connection, etc. But as soon as I get to deploy or look at a move or try giving orders it hangs up after a minute, maybe two.

any ideas what the problem is?

This happens with and without Zone Alarm installed.

Maybe your ISP is disconnecting you due to inactivity ? You can try this program Keep Alive. I have no idea how good it is (or if this site has a virus-free version). It may be worth trying.

Beyond that I have no idea why CM would cause your modem to hang up. It doesn't deal with the modem at all, but the TCP/IP packets. I don't know if there is a way to have it associate dialing up your ISP when you launch it.
