I have 10.8.3 installed. I use Cisco VPN but this hangs after 57 minutes and 35 seconds. I disconnect but can't reconnect straight away but have to wait about 10 minutes then have another 57 minutes

I use a mac with 10.8.3 installed. I use Cisco VPN & citrix receiver to connect to work via my home wireless which connects & works brilliantly but then hangs after 57 minutes and about 35 seconds. I disconnect but can't reconnect straight away although it goes through the motions but doesn't find a connection. I have to wait about 10 minutes (or restart the MAC) then it connects fine again and I have another 57 minutes. I previously used 10.6 for a while without any problems and then the VPN just stopped connecting? after trying to resolve without success I upgraded the OS hoping that this might fix the issue which it has but created this other problem! I can live with it but thought there may be some way to correct this surely.  I'm not heavily technically minded and have read reports about the racoon service may be causing this but not sure how you do this very simply step by step
Thank you for any ideas you can give
