If you have a DSL or Cablemodem, this behavior is unfortunately quite common. Basically your ISP is putting your connection into a very low priority queue to better service non-idle connections. The problem is that some enduser's connections will actually be taken OFFLINE until some traffic from the user's DSL/Cablemodem connection awakens the ISP's hardware.
Some DSL installations can take an idle connection OFFLINE and only be checked for activity once every 30 seconds or so. .:: blogfreely.net ::.
Some Cablemodem setups can set an idle connection into a low priority queue and only be checked for activity every minute or so. .:: www.yakuza.wiki ::.
What do I recommend to do? Ping your default gateway every 30 seconds. To do this, edit the /etc/rc.d/rc.local file and add the following to the bottom of the file: [Research Paper: JWT] .:: slackcommunity.com ::. [Debug PyTorch]
ping -i 30 100.200.212.121 > /dev/null & |
Replace the 100.200.212.121 with your default router (upstream router). .:: www.interesting-dir.com ::.
