[Dxbase] [dxbase] Internet Packet Disconnects

Thu Dec 28 17:13:13 EST 2017

This is a recurring problem.  No one seems able to solve the cause of 
it, but it has been mentioned on the reflector several times in the 
past.  I have a very fast internet connection and use the VE7CC cluster 
and it happens to me from time to time.  No rime or reason just random 
disconnects.  I thought that it only happens during a contest when there 
are a lot of spots, but it even happens on very slow days.  I don't 
think that anyone has a solution.
