Revit MEP 2010 dropping network license

[glenwalson7986]

A number of our Revit MEP 2010 users (all network licenses) report that all of a sudden there Revit session switches to Demo mode and it want allow them to save. Has anyone else had this same issue? What is the problem? I'm thinking its a software bug.

I have had the problem in the past. The reason why mine went into demo mode was because I had previously opened up AutoCAD 2010 & when I closed the program, instead of releasing the license it would keep it. I would sometime have to manually release the license.

Take a look at this:

I have users pulling a REVIT license across a WAN link. 2009 works
fine. With 2010 they randomly lose the license connection. The link
above solved the problem for us.
