End Hanging Disconnect ReviewEssential - Version: 1.4, 10/3/2004 03:08PM PST

I don't know what causes the problem which this script solves -- maybe in my case a dodgy ISDN connection on the end of a long phone line? -- but I need to use it often, and it works every time (with only one password request). It has a significantly positive impact on my life. Thank you!

End Hanging Disconnect CommentaryWorks, but.....!! - Version: 1.3, 2/13/2004 01:47AM PST

I like this script; however, I have to enter my admin password twice before the script will work. The first time, it does nothing, then on the second try, it finally does what it's supposed to do and quickly. I like it, but I don't like having to enter the same information twice to do one very simple job. Can this be fixed so that it works on the very first try?

End Hanging Disconnect ReviewWorks without problems - Version: 1.2, 1/15/2004 01:14PM PST

Works for me (sometimes must run twice, as developer says), saves me hassles, and doesn't seem to cause problems. I wish that all life was like this. (I've used it on four different occasions, and can reconnect immediately)

End Hanging Disconnect Usage TipNOTE: - Version: 1.1, 12/30/2003 01:30PM PST

If upon running this application, your Mac is still "stuck", then try running the application once or even twice again, if necessary. You cannot damage anything by doing so, as the application uses a UNIX command which allows the processes to exit "gracefully" and to "clean up after themselves" (as opposed to "kill -9"). In most cases, you should be able to re-connect to the Internet a few seconds after "End Hanging Disconnect" quits.

I had the same Problem with the Disconnect on my G3 beige with T-DSL.All 24h the Provider forces a disconnect. I have an apple-script that autom. disconnect the Line after 23:59h. I recognized that a "manual" disconnect eleminate this Problem. The script is executed all 23:59h with a cron-task. The Problem is blow away forever. My G3 works like a charme now. No hassles anymore. And this is my Applescript:

tell application "Internet Connect" to disconnect
delay 60
tell application "Internet Connect" to connect
delay 20
tell application "Internet Connect" to quit

Save the Script in the Editor as "Executable" and tell your cron to execute it every 23:59h.

End Hanging Disconnect CommentaryUmm... works.... - Version: 1.0, 12/30/2003 08:26AM PST

I've been trying this script since their last release (not this one). It seems that it works, but I have to open it twice to make the "Disconnecting" message go out, letting me reconnect. But, from time to time I still prefer restarting... I don't really know if this script will screw my system or what O.o But... at least works.
