Thank you for your data.
I will look into this regression next week.
Good to know that the JNLP Applet version,
the other gears link, is working properly.

Q: Is your internet connection stable and does not drop off ?
One reason why the JNLP Applet works all the time might be the fact
that we explicitly tag the update check to run in the background.
This implies that the applet is being started immediately if
all jnlp and jar files are being cached. They may get updated while the
Applet/JVM is running.
I have experienced this behavior w/ poor network connection as well ..

Note that the 'applet launcher' version is deprecated
and you may use the 'NApplet' variant as advertised
in the 'jogl test applets' page. Are the 'NApplet'
variants working properly for you ?
