Point to Site VPN timeouts
I appreciate the feedback but I don't think that's an option on the client side, there's no hardware that we can adjust this on. We are using Windows 7.
Is the disconnet during idle periods or does it happen during use ?

Sorry I should have specified them as idle timeouts, yes.

I found this:
it uses scripts to make the tunnel always on. It is the only solution i have been able to find, unless you want to use Routing and Remote access in a IaaS VM

We have a similar problem where the user's connection to Azure VPN drops frequently. At times, the user can fix the problem by rebooting his/her PC. Other times, there is no solution. A work-around is to have the user run the following .bat file (assumption is that user only has one RAS connection profile and one .pbk file)
:loop
forfiles /p %USERPROFILE%\appdata\roaming\microsoft\network\connections\cm /s /m *.pbk /c "cmd /c rasdial @FNAME /PHONEBOOK:@FILE"
timeout 30
goto loop(note that the forfiles command above may be wrapped in the MSDN window. batch file only has 4 lines.)
