- Odds are you're not connecting directly to the internet machine, but rather
- are doing something like this:
-
- You <-> Your modem <-> Their modem <-> Terminal Server <-> Net <-> Machine.
-
- I have a situation exactly like this. The problem lies in the terminal
- server. It is trained to watch for certain "escape codes" which will drop
- you out of the Server <-> part of the connection so that you can establish
- more connections or do something else. Crude multi-session computing. When
- you start a transfer, the server "escape code" nearly always comes up
- pretty quick, and the server decides that you want to do something else,
- promptly yanking half of your connection route, so that the data flow is
- interrupted.
-
- The fix? Tell the server you want "download mode" or something of that ilk.
- The command for a CISCO server (what I deal with) is 'term download'. Other
- brands would probably have similar commands, I'd suggest asking a telecom
- person at your school what the command is for your particular setup.
