    Check your terms of service, they may disconnect you after three hours even if you are actively using the account.

    Yeh, that happens every four hours with people pc too, thats why i said screw the dial up. theres not much you can do, thats what happens with the cheaper dial ups. Best suggestion would be to complain to the company.

    Be sure you have paid for unlimited internet access. If you have, then contact them and tell them your problem. If you keep having the problem, switch to another provider next month.

    Probably because the IP Address they assign you is on a 3hr lease or something.
