live mail disconnects mobile broadband

Using Dell Vostro laptop - Windows 7 Professional - Windows Live Mail.

Have a Verizon Broadband USB adapter/NIC.

Whenever I connect to the Internet - no Problem.

However, when I use Live Mail to get my Gmail messages, the Broadband keeps
disconnecting?

Any thoughts and/or solutions?


thx

Go to Tools, Accounts, select your mail account, Properties, Connection.
You should leave that setting unselected, in which case WLM will use
whatever connection IE uses.

Also, under Tools, Options, Connection, the first box should be checked,
and the second box unchecked.

I also have a laptop with Windows 7. I am looking to buy a USB Modem from
Verizon but none of them are compatible with Windows 7. Will they work with
the driver that comes with the modem ?

I don't have an answer; but a question of my own. Any computer new enough to
run Windows 7 likely has an Ethernet port. An Ethernet DSL modem is superior
to a USB DSL modem in all ways. So why do you want an UDB DSL modem?

Like Norman says, a USB modem is much inferior and more
troublesome than a modem that connects to your Ethernet port.
Not recommended.
