A short script to automate dial-up internet connections
Authored by: calroth on May 23, '03 08:27:48AM

Save the script as "connect".

In a shell, sleep 15000 ; open ./connect ; sleep 15000 ; open ./connect etc.

If you've got a session limit on your dialup account (of, let's say, 15000 seconds), the above script will keep your connection up. There are probably better ways of achieving this.
