Auto Reconnect

Is there a way that the program reconnects when disconnected? I use cable 128kb and i have a problem that my connection disconnects every 10 minutes properly. So when i leave my computer open and download something, it stops and waits me to reconnect manuelly.
So, as i said, how i can use auto-reconnect function?

If you leave DC++ open, any hubs will automatically reconnect.

AFAIK, the only exception to this is if you get the message "Nick already in use".

Also, I think you should be trying to sort out the more fundamental problem of why you are being disconnected every 10 minutes!

It would be nice to get an alternate nick feature =), as the only time it stops trying to reconnect is on bans? and nick in use.

It's been suggested, but that really wreaks havoc when other people are downloading off of you. Specifically, when they queue from you when you're using an alternate nick and you go back to your normal one, they're SOL in NMDC, and in DC++ they'll have to do a lot of autosearching or get your filelist and "match queue."
