On the client, set up an infinite ping (ping -t for windows98 etc) that will ping your database server.
Watch and see if the pings fail when the Oracle connection drops.

Depending on what happens will indicate a problem with the network connections or the oracle database.

You should investigate the timeout setting in your listener.ora
