kicked off network

[IMakeYouSick]

i have several computers on a p-to-p network. all of a sudden, just one of them keeps getting kicked off after an hour or so of inactivity. don't think anything has changed with any of the copmuters.

Is it just the one computer? Is it always roughly the same amount of time? It could possibly be a power setting for the network card. Check in device manager. Goto the network card properties and check the power management tab. Uncheck the allow computer to turn off this device, see if that helps. Check the settings in the power options in control panel aswell.

That or it could be that someone played with the settings that it should disconnect after X time of inactivity...but for P2P programs, that's a no-no.
