Sporadic hangs of w3wp because of network problems?

[burnEF]

Hi,

we have a problem with sporadic "hangs" of a Intranet Web Application ( ASP.Net 4.0, dotconnect 6.50.244, oracle client 10g, IIS7, Windows Server 2008).

Exception message: The underlying provider failed to open
and
Message: Server did not respond within the specified timeout interval

It might be a problem with the LAN (Web-Server <-> Oracle-Server).
The LAN is unfortunately sometimes quite instable.

I read in most of your forum answers regarding such a problem:
"Be sure there are no network problems..."

So now we are in the situation of having spordic network problems.
How does dotconnect/oracle client deal with such instability and what can we do to prevent the application from these "hangs"?

Thanks!

If you have unstable network try using 'ValidateConnection=true;' OracleConnection connection string parameter.
