How come Fenix close the local-tunnel after few minutes ?

coreybutler commented 8 years ago

Fenix doesn't close the tunnel... but the remote host (localtunnel.me) sometimes disconnects after a period of inactivity. How long that period is seems to vary. In Fenix 3 (what I'm working on now), I've added a keepalive function to work around this. So far, I've been able to keep a server shared for about 9 hours without a disconnection. We're also experimenting with our own dedicated tunneling service (commercial version) for a more consistent experience.
