FireFox time out
 
Hi all
Is there a 'time-out' setting on F/F? Few times I've sat down and constructed a reply to some forums (10-15 mins) then post, 'link is dropped' Any help.

Are you sure it is not a correct response to an underlying network problem - e.g. your PC - router or router - ISP connection dropping out?

Can you check for similar behaviour with IE or another browser?

Can you check connectivity by doing a continuous ping (ping -t) to a responding site (e.g. BBC - Homepage) and examining the result for any timeouts that would indicate that your internet connection is dropping out?

To avoid irritation, try composing your posts in notepad (or similar text editor) until you have fixed the problem.
