Any idea why my VPN will not stay on? It works fine but drops when the phone goes in standby, is there a way to tell it to always establish VPN connection?

Thanks

I was having the same problem with the built in IPSec client. I switched over to the AnyConnect SSL and it will run in the background for as long as you want. Assuming you are in a Cisco environment, the PIX/ASA you are connecting to must be enabled (config and licenses) to support SSL VPN and AnyConnect Mobile though. I manage the ASAs for the company I work for and we already use SSL VPN so all I had to do was buy the AnyConnect Mobile license. It was around $100 ifc.
