Here's my problem, on my Win 2003 Server STD, I run an ADSL connection with a modem, all is fine most of the time, however the connection goes down every 2/3 months for some reason, and when this happens I would like the connection to come back up again automatically.

How can this be done?

Does Windows have a way to check a particular connection regularly and connect it if it's down?

With the connection down, I can't remote connect to it to sort the problem, how can this be solved?

Thank you.

 
In routing remote access you can set the ADSL Interface to be persisstant also you can tell it to reconnect should the line drop

Right click on it and select properties...

What do you mean by that?

The connection is set to re-connect if line is dropped, but it doesn't, and sometimes the line is not dropped just gets unusable, it's there as connected but nothing goes in or out of it, requiring manual dis/connecting.

Someone told me about RAS and things like that, but I don't know how to set it up, what options would I have?

Can someone help me here?
