Do your client applications tend to leave an open connection sitting
idle for awhile? If so you might be getting burnt by idle-connection
timeouts in intervening routers. NAT-capable boxes in particular
will kill a connection that carries no data for "too long". If you're
lucky the router will offer a way to adjust its timeout ...
