I had the same problem with a GVC modem a few days ago, and i dont think
we are the only ones :) Of some obscure reason the standard timeout time
is set to one minute inside Denmark :) (and only in dk!? i know our
phone rates are so high that one should move out of the country, but 1
minute!?!? :) (We found out by reading the manual :) Insert a \T0 in
your dialup string. (if it is ATDT now then make it AT\T0DT. If you do
want it to hang up automatically after a certain ammount of time then
replace the 0 with the number of minutes you want. (It is not idle time,
but the ammount of time you have been connected it counts)
