Tried the modification of the .WS file. It seemed to work for most of the day, but then in the last hour my session has dropped twice. As far as pulling the latest version of iSeries Access, since I'm offsite as far as where the AS/400 resides, and the fact that it belongs to a subsidiary of our company kind of limits what I can and can't do update-wise.

Are you on a VPN connection to the remote system?

Are you behind a NAT router locally?

If both of those are Yes, then the router may be timing out the NAT
mapping for the underlying VPN connection, so that when VPN packets
come in from the remote network, it doesn't know what local IP address
to send them to.

Because I have a linux system as my router, and because I only use the
VPN on one of the PCs, I was able to get around this by adding a rule
that if a packet comes in from the IP address of the VPN server,
always forward it to the local IP address of that one PC.
