Janet,

I think I see what the problem is.  The downstream LDM on the ground
tries to contact the LDM server on the plane using the last known IP
address when it hasn't received a product for 60 seconds.  If the IP
address is no longer valid, then the attempt times-out (it SHOULD
get an error instead -- shame on the ISP).  To the downstream LDM, a
simple time-out is insufficient reason to break the connection and 
reconnect.

I'll have a solution for you tomorrow.

Regards,
Steve Emmerson
