Re[2]: Worthless DTN data feed

This problem is not totally resolved but it is better. In my case, not much
of an issue since I focus only on the ES contract. I may go several weeks
without a disconnect then may have 2 or 3 in one day. Sometimes DynaStore is
able to auto-reconnect, sometimes not. In those cases I am typically able to
manually reconnect quickly. At other times, when I return to my office and
discover I've had an extended outage I shut down charting, download and
import data and restart charting. It takes less than 15 seconds to download
a day of ES data.

Right now I can't remember the last time I had a disconnect - at least a
month, anyway.

************************
Do you have any connect or reconnect problems with that combination?  Is it
working solid now?  Having followed the betas from the beginning it seemed
like dynastore and dtn/IQFeed never could get it together reliably.  Have
all those problems been solved?  I have been waiting for that day to use the
combo as backup for dtn sat.

thanks,
bobr
