time you connect to the Internet through your ISP, select Ye s. Otherwise, select No.
3. What type of IPS connection do you use? If your connection is PPTP or PPPoE, then you
must log in (select the Yes radio box in the previous step). The text box fields that require data
entry will be highlighted, based on the connection that you selected. If your ISP has not
assigned any login information, then choose the No radio box in the previous step and skip this
section. For example:

following highlighted fields:
– Account Name (also known as Host Name or System Name). Enter the valid account
name for the PPTP connection (usually your e-mail “ID” assigned by your ISP). Some
ISPs require entering your full e-mail address here.
– Domain Name. Your domain name or workgroup name assigned by your ISP, or your
ISPs domain name. You may leave this field blank.
– Idle Timeout. Check the Keep Connected radio box to keep the connection always
on. To logout after the connection is idle for a period of time, select Idle Time and
enter the number of minutes to wait before disconnecting in the timeout field. This is
useful if your ISP charges you based on the amount of time you have logged in.
– My IP Address. IP address assigned by the ISP to make the connection with the ISP
server.
– Server IP Address. IP address of the PPTP server.

your connection type is PPPoE. Select this connection and configure the following fields:
– Account Name: Valid account name for the PPPoE connection
– Domain Name: Name of your ISPs domain or your domain name if your ISP has
assigned one. You may leave this field blank.
– Idle Timeout: Select Keep Connected, to keep the connection always on. To logout
after the connection is idle for a period of time, select Idle Time and enter the number
of minutes to wait before disconnecting, in the timeout field.
– Connection Reset. Select this checkbox to to specify a time when the PPPoE WAN
connection is reset, that is, the connection is disconnected momentarily and then re-
established. Enter the hour and minutes in the Disconnect Time fields to specify when
the connection should be disconnected. Enter the seconds in the Delay field to specify
the period after which the connection should be re-established.
