[Dxbase] DXBase 2006 - staying connected to DSL

[Nick Lekic]

Are you using your Westell modem in 'bridge' mode with your router?  I 
recall there was some sort of 'inactivity timeout' setting on the 
Westell modem configuration page while playing with one down in W4 while 
visiting friends.   Try disabling that.
