I have been experiencing this also since I started using WDSC and connecting remotely over VPN. Host servers are not ended, I have always assumed it was a VPN setting, although it does not affect 5250 sessions. It does not occur when I am on-site (inside the firewall) and connected directly to the network. I just accept it as a fact of life when working remotely, and save frequently.
WDSC does give you the option to reconnect, and about 80% of the time it will reconnect successfully. The QRWTSRVR job from the prior session sometimes retains a lock on the member(s) that were open, but you are given the option to end that job and free the locks.

If there is a setting in the client, I would love to know about it.

when I am at a remote network with my laptop.

How often does this happen? Is it more than once a day? How are you
connected to the remote network? VPN? Is your remote connection
dropping & reconnecting?

Any chance someone (or some process) is ending the host servers?
