Keep getting log out

[Desert Goat Herder]

As the title says I keep getting logged out and have to re-log in about once an hour. What is causing this problem.

Thanks

Goat Herder,

While I can't be sure, I suspect that its your non-traditional service provider. Due to the nature of their service, the IP is most probably dynamic. When your computer sends a request after a period of inactivity, its possible that your IP is reassigned. The board software sees that as a security violation, and denies access by terminating your login. At that point you have to log in again from your new-to-you IP address, the board accepts your request, and you're signed back in.

And THAT I can't fix.

Hmm that's interesting :icon_think: I've been experiencing the same thing for quite a while now :icon_wall: I wouldn't call Oz's biggest provider Telstra a "non-traditional service provider" though, even if they do use Dynamic IP's :icon_think:
