How do I stop Opera from hanging up the modem?
During very long downloads, Opera likes to hangup the dial up modem. I think it's Opera disconnecting.I have an automatic feature, where if there is 'no activity' for some amount of time, disconnect. But, obviously, a download *IS* activity that I'm trying to keep going. No other brouser, nothing else going on to maximize data throughput.
My old workaround was that I found a website that did enough hand shaking, Opera wouldn't hangup, but now that website is gone.
Opera has the fantastic feature of 'resume' in the download, but still....
