Havent really seen this talked about lately... is anyone still getting it where the internet drops connection on the hour every hour with 3.16? Is there a work around for this yet, or is this as I suspect a "bug" with the test rom and is possibly meant for this to do it until an official release?

I've had the same problem and apparently a fews others too. But I don't think enough people are having issues to warrant a "fix". Sucks to be us...:(

I've seen similar behavior (although with not such regularity that you're reporting.) From what I've read here and at ppcgeeks.com it sounds like an issue with the radio rom and not with any of the builds. I'm hoping that a new radio rom is released soon that will eliminate this behavior.

Of course I'm tethered right now posting this so it's not behaving too badly for me.

I have also found that some websites (when tethered) will not open at all for me. Yahoo mail and hotmail are the two the immediately come to mind. They resolve in DNS, I can ping them but they won't open in my browser when I'm tethered.

Yeah, when I use the 3.27 radio I have internet problem. It cannot keep connection so I will have to restart connection often. This cause me trouble with corporate VPN so it cannot use WinMo 6.1 + 3.27 radio. I wish I can use WinMo 6.1 with 1.40 radio, but I think it isn't possible, maybe. WinMo 6.1 is no crash at all in one week... so stable, but WinMo 6.0 crash five time a day. Still, can't use 6.1 cause I can't use my VPN.

We need a better radio, I think radio is trouble with internet. Maybe use 6.0 WinMo and 1.40 radio instead. Until work around anyway.

WM6.1 runs fine with 1.40 radio if you use the 2.17 ROM as base

I know this might be a long shot but do you think the radio version and the earlier models of the Mogul could have the effect... I ordered and got mine the first day it came out.... maybe the newer ones are coopertaing better with the new radio? This is a far shot as I would think all the parts/chipsets are the same...

Got mine in late summer. With the "stock" 3.16 beta streaming audio is almost impossible. In both Resco and Mundu radio I can't stream for longer than a couple minutes before that wicked "buffering" message appears.

Before I was using my Mogul with few interruptions for 8 hours a day since we're not supposed to stream on the office network. I'm hoping for a fix soon since the stock 2.17 doesn't seem to want to flash over 3.16.

PRL 60711 seems to have helped the streaming problem. Funny I've been running it on my air card for weeks now.

Fix streaming issue or losing internet connection on the hour?
