i am using firefox
Try connecting to my demo site at
http://www.pmserver.net and see if you time out there before the 60-minute idle kicks you out. I normally use Mozilla SeaMonkey but it should act the same as FireFox.

Hi Kent,
I'm not sure what the issue is (server, flash client, browser, ISP), but here's just a thought... can the server code be written to "ping" the client every minute or so to ensure the client remains active? I was thinking that might be a solution as we don't have this disconnection issue when things are actually happening (i.e. when players are active in a game, or chatting in the lobby)? I guessing that if information is being served to the client on a regular basis the connection doesn't time out.

Yes, I could do that. Although that's happening anyway if there's any activity go on there. It would typically only help the first person logging in and waiting for someone else to log in. I'll look into it, thanks.
