I think Florian meant that long TCP sessions are dropped even though
the ISDN link has remained up. For instance, if you have a telnet
session open but has no activity for a while, you will find your telnet
window stops working. The ISDN link itself would have other activities
going on so idle detection is definitely not kicking in.
I have seen this as well w/ my Pipeline 75 using various 5.0Ai betas.
I'm currently running Ai23 and the bug is still there.
