Unable to maintain iChat connection when on Verizon mi-fi

Is anyone else seeing this? When I use my Verizon LTE Mi-Fi, ichat drops the connections after a couple of minutes, and I have to manually reconnect. Don't see this on any other network.

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.2)

Hi,


It will depend on how this device maintains Always-On connections.


Web Browsers and Mail are only "Now And Then" users of the internet connections when they change/load pages or get/send mail.


Browsers and Mail will not notice if the connection is dropping every now and then.


I would try turning off any SSL login on any AIM Login you have.

(SSL needs Manual reset each time it is dropped)
