Sounds to me like this ISP has the same problem that some others do - they
drop DC1 when the client is using NS/VT.  Unfortunately, they think that
they can do flow control better than the bloody hardware.

To check this, turn on Display Options on the termulator and press RETURN to
get an MPE prompt.  Do you see a "D1" after the colon?  Then this is NOT the
problem.  If not, then this is the problem.

If it is - the solution is to talk to the ISP, but more than likely, they
will not be able to do anything.  The other solution is to use Telnet
instead of NS/VT.

Best Regards,
