Interesting. As I've been having the same problems (or similar problems)
with my PMs (2er, and pm-11s) I would be interested in hearing the
solution. If you ever do hear back from Livingston.
I also would be interested in knowing if you've actually been online (on
the portmaster) debugging what - exactly - is happening when the user
connects?
Obviously if the user doesn't have Netbeui and IPX disabled it would take
a considerable time to cycle through the two, and that could be the
reason for the slow disconnect. But if *this* doesn't fix it, Im
baffled.
And I know that for myself, the problem is specifically to one (internal
cantex) line. As Ive mentioned previously, however, I haven't spent the
necessary time looking into it.
See ya.
