Automatic Idle Timeout (Timer Bar)
In the FRITZ!web settings you can specify how many seconds
the line is allowed to remain idle before the existing connec-
tion to the Internet is automatically terminated. An example:
You request a web page and view it in your browser. While
you are reading, no further data is being requested over the
Internet connection. After the delay you have specified in the
settings, FRITZ!web hangs up the idle connection. Now you
can continue reading the Internet page without accruing any
further charges. The connection is not re-established until
you click a link or enter another URL. Thanks to FRITZ!web’s
fast dial-up, you will hardly notice that the connection is be-
ing restored.
Specifying an Outgoing Caller ID
In order to keep track of the online costs incurred, you can
designate one of your line’s MSNs as the outgoing Caller ID
in the FRITZ!web “Settings” context menu. All online charges
will then be billed to the specified number.
3.3 Using ISDN Services with FRITZ!
ISDN integrates the entire range of telematics services, such
as telephone, telefax, data and video communication, in a
single digital telecommunications network. FRITZ! turns your
computer into a convenient communications hub which pro-
vides all these services.
You can also use third-party applications based on CAPI 2.0.
Multiple Subscriber Numbers for the FRITZ! Modules
To receive fax and data calls with FRITZ!, it is not necessary to
assign distinct Multiple Subscriber Numbers (MSNs) to
FRITZ!data and FRITZ!fax , since FRITZ!fax answers calls with
the service indicator for “voice” telephony, while FRITZ!data
responds only to calls with the “data” service indicator.
However, FRITZ!fax and FRITZ!fon both use the “voice” ser-
vice indicator. If you want these modules to respond to calls
meant for them, you must assign distinct MSNs for call ac-
ceptance to FRITZ!fax and FRITZ!fon, and to any telephones
