Would you mind setting eznet not to time out so quickly, as a default, for
new users? Sometimes I read websites for 5 minutes, without downloading
or uploading anything in the process. 15 min might work, 30 would be
nice.

I think I had this same problem with my connection in Newdeal (which used
to be Geoworks) - until I changed the idle time out from 5 min to 50
minutes, I kept getting disconnecting while writing emails.
