You have to increase the timeout value from your web.config file also you have to specify that you allow cookies like in the next example:

HTML

<sessionstate mode="InProc" cookieless="false" timeout="2880" />

By default ASP.NET uses cookies to identify which requests belong to a particular session. If cookies are not available, a session can be tracked by adding a session identifier to the URL. To disable cookies, set sessionState cookieless="true".

<sessionState mode="StateServer" cookieless="false" timeout="120"/>
