I know that access to Athena is a privilege and all that, but isn't it supposed to be reliable? This has become a constant battle for me. I log on, do some work, it decides to toss my connection, and I lose several pages of work, couple hours of time, and god knows what else. Is there anything I can do? Like connect to a different server or somethng?
