So we added remote desktop and firepass as highest QOS, and turned off the screen saver of the host machine...which seems to have worked as it hasn't burped in 2 hours.

I have a Windows 7 PC at home. &nbsp;I have nXP machine at work. &nbsp;I am using firepass and remote desktop from my home PC. &nbsp;The problem is that every few minutes (5-15), it freezes up, hiccups, has to reconnect the desktop, and usually takes 45-60 seconds to do so. &nbsp;It's very disruptive to workflow.<br />
<br />
I have tried the following:<br />
Turned off windows firewall services at work (with IT permission)<br />
Turned off windows firewall at home<br />
Turned off bsafe protector<br />
<br />
It HAD been kicking me off every 57 minutes and the only difference now is that I replaced my home G router with a gigabit N router. &nbsp;COuld it be router settings? I don't know. &nbsp;HELP!<br />
<br />
Any other suggestions? THis is getting old.

How do I prevent remote desktop from disconnecting when using f5/firepass from home?

A virtual private network (VPN) is a network that uses a public telecommunication infrastructure, such as the Internet, to provide remote offices or travelling users access to a central organizational network securely. VPNs encapsulate data transfers using secure cryptographic methods and other security mechanisms to ensure that only authorized users can access the network and that the data cannot be intercepted.

Windows 7 is an operating system from Microsoft. Features include multi-touch support, a redesigned Windows Shell with a new taskbar, referred to as the Superbar, a home networking system called HomeGroup, and performance improvements.
