mobile network: 2G/3G option loses connection after idling

 

Hello everyone,

This concerns the bq device, which I'm using all the time now, and for the
most part of the day I'm connected to the cellular network. (the available
protocol options for wifi don't work for me yet).

So when I have the 2g/3g option enabled, and I leave the phone on the side
for a while (locked etc. etc.), when I pick it up, it is not connected.
Apparently it shuts-down the connection to save itself some battery or
pointless kB consumption, but it doesn't go back up.
On the other hand when I have the 2G-only option enabled, it works slowly,
but it works all the time.

I filled a bug report here:

... But I was surprised I didn't see any other users experiencing the same
problem.

Anyone has a nice solution that I haven't thought of yet?
