PLEASE HELP - Remote connection to SQL Server 2005 fall over after 100 seconds

Hi,
I am remotely accessing SQL Server 2005 using an import manager,
through a windows authentication login.
I start the loading, it connects perfectly at first but at the 100
second mark I get the error
"[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][TCP/IP Sockets]SQL Server d
oes
not exist or access denied" it then reconnects and continues to load
but really slowly. So it looks like a timeout is occuring at 100
seconds
I have tried to change the connection timeout, the execution timeout
and the remote login timeout, nothing stops this happening.
The version of sql I am using is a SQL Server 2005 Evaluation edition.
Can anyone help?
Thanks
ArchanaIs there some reason you're using the ODBC driver to access SQL Server
instead of a native provider?

The loading is going through a third party import manager, they must
be setting the ODBC driver to access SQL Server.
However when the company who wrote the import manager test it in their
environment replicating what I do they have no problems and it loads
fine
