Go to System Preferences/Network. Select Show: Internal Mode. The PPP tab should be highlighted, if not click on that. Towards the bottm left is the button PPP Options, click on that and make sure the Disconnect if idle box is unchecked. NTW there is Network forum accessible from the button in the bottom right hand of the screen that is called Forum Jump
