Thanks. Positive feedback is always appreciated.

Yes, it is still right. If you set let's say an interval of 5 minutes with a traffic of 3 KB/min, AutoDisconnect will close the connection if less than 5*3 = 15KB has been received through the interface.

I can't believe that some app is regulary pushing more than 200 Bytes a minute over the connection. But I'm not sure.
Easy to know : check the file /var/log/autodisconnect.log.

200B/min is I think too low. Try 2KB/min.
