Re: [Announce] AutoDisconnect - Automatically disconnect idle connections
 

Think "the other way": you define a value of traffic volume and if the mean volume for the given timespan is below that value, the connection is considered unused and gets closed. Therefore a higher value means that the connection might get closed even if there still are apps transferring data and a very low value means it probably never gets closed. It depends on the the apps/widgets you have usually running which value is the best.

Re: [Announce] AutoDisconnect - Automatically disconnect idle connections
 

A suggestion: would it be possible adding a kind of status bar entry which shows the actual status of AutoDisconnect as well as the mean traffic of the last few minutes (i.e. the timespan defined in the settings)?

The data is already there (within the app) and showing it to the user directly without him having to look at the logfile uld make it a bit more comfortable. :)

Re: [Announce] AutoDisconnect - Automatically disconnect idle connections
 

Hey folks,

i recently installed auto-disconnect, and im wondering which configuration-options i have to activate to make fetching mails automaticly (imap) work again after a disconnect by auto-disconnect. Atm, im using 'Connect automatically to any network', and 'never scan'. I configured the Mail programm to fetch my mails every 30 minutes but this does not seem to work.
any suggestions?

regards,
nebel

Hi.

This problem is explained in the FAQ, ie the first post of this thread.

Another solution would be to use "Connect automatically to any network" and "Scan every 30mins" for example.

Cheers

Good idea.

Re: [Announce] AutoDisconnect - Automatically disconnect idle connections
 

Hmm ok I want my widgets to automatically update in conjunction with auto disconnect. If I set it to connect automatically to my gprs connection with a 60 minute search interval, and I go into an area with no gprs coverage it will NOT connect to any other AP correct? I want to make sure it isn't connecting to any public AP for security reasons, don't want my logins for fb etc going through some random AP.

Re: [Announce] AutoDisconnect - Automatically disconnect idle connections
 

Absolutely.

Edit : I have edited the FAQ.

Re: [Announce] AutoDisconnect - Automatically disconnect idle connections
 

Am i right that one of this options should be enough? Or is both needed? Sorry my english is not so good.

The

Is just fetching my mails if im allready connected, it will not connect to a network .

Re: [Announce] AutoDisconnect - Automatically disconnect idle connections
 

In Settings > Internet Connections, Use "Connect automatically" to any network or a specified connection and set the "Search Interval" to some value.

That's a whole option.

Strange it should connect to a network. It's exactly the same as clicking on the MFE "Synchronize manually" button.
