Parameter Description
User Name Enter the User Name provided by your ISP for the PPPoE connection
Password Enter the Password provided by your ISP for the PPPoE connection
Service Name This is optional. Enter the Service name should your ISP requires it,
otherwise leave it blank.
MTU This is optional. You can specify the maximum size of your
transmission packet to the Internet. Leave it as it is if you to not wish
to set a maximum packet size.
Connection Type Select “Continuous”, if the router should always connect to the ISP. If
the WAN line breaks down and links again, the router will
auto-reconnect to the ISP.
Select “Connect On Demand”, if the router should auto-connect to
the ISP when someone want to use the Internet. The router will close
the WAN connection if the time period that no one is using the
Internet exceeds the “Idle Time”.
Select “Manual”, if the router should only connect to the ISP when
you click “Connect” manually from the Web user interface.
Idle Time Specify an idle time threshold (minutes) for the WAN port. This
means if no packets have been sent (no one is using the Internet)
during this specified period, the router will automatically disconnect
the connection with your ISP.
Note: This “idle timeout” function may not work due to abnormal
activities of some network application software, computer virus or
hacker attacks from the Internet. For example, some software sends
network packets to the Internet in the background, even when you
are not using the Internet. So please turn off your computer when
you are not using it. This function also may not work with some ISP.
So please make sure this function can work properly when you use
this function in the first time, especially your ISP charge you by time
used.
