Connecting and maintaining Windows connections is erratic.

[krasnit]

Warpinator for Linux works wonderfully on my LANs. But I am experiencing problems with Winpinator. If I can connect, and that is not always possible, with other Windows computers the connection will often break after some time, a few minutes or even hours, and it becomes difficult to reconnect. This is a problem mostly with laptops but not always. It seems to be related usually to WIFI connections, but wired computers also experience this sometimes. I realise laptops often go to sleep, but when they awake I should be able to easily reconnect; but my problem is also with laptops that do not go to sleep. I have fooled around with firewall setting on the Windows machines ad infinitum, but the problem persists. This happens on 2 completely different LANs. I have had better success with the Avast Firewall instead of the Windows Defender, but only slightly better. Turning off all the firewalls on the computer does little. Is there something I should be looking for to resolve this, because Winpinator is really nice when I get it to work!
