Can't remember where but somewhere on these forums someone added a script you can run to keep the connection active. It constantly pings Google. Think it was a thread in the MTN section.

On that forum it is also mentioned that browsing will feel smoother. I can imagine - i've noticed when you open a webpage initially the connection is slow and then ramps up speed as the modulation scheme changes from normal 3G to HSPA+. If you're on HSPA+ modulation from the start it should feel quicker? Will play around a bit tonight.

ohh btw.. you can just ping with "ping google.com -t" and it will repeat until you press "ctrl+c".

If you haven't been browsing/downloading for a while, but the pings were still running, does your modem get hot?
