Workaround for cell c disconnect problem for linux

[leojay18]

Hi all

I came across a workaround solution for the cell c disconnect problem. Here is a link to that post.

A workaround for this problem has been suggested for Windows. Details described at Link 1 & Link 2.

Can one try this for linux? If so, how?

Open up a terminal and type 'ping www.google.com', the Linux ping repeats forever so doesn't need the '-n 99999' switch.

Thanks ginggs!

While I'm running "ping www.google.co.za" in terminal I don't get any disconnects from cell c 3g, so it seems like it might be working. I'll have to still test it more though, also with/without pinging.
