be upgraded with new firmware. For more information, see
Upgrade Router.

Show Advanced Diagnostics for Routers
Select this option to enable a line diagnostics troubleshooting tool
in OverLAN Commander. Once enabled, close the Router.
Properties dialog box. Then, reselect the router. When reselected,
the Router Properties dialog box will include tabs for Advanced
Diagnostics and ISDN Trace. These features are provided
primarily to help Technical Support at Ringdale to determine the
operating condition of the router.

Re-transmission Timeout (Sec)
This is the time in seconds that the router will wait for a response
from the device it is calling before attempting to re-transmitt to the
device. Generally, 1 second should be sufficient for most devices.
However, sometimes a setting of 2 seconds can help to compensate
for a congested network or a slow device. In extreme cases, even
3 or 4 seconds could be necessary. If you must set this option to
more than 4 seconds, you may want to inquire to the associated
Network Administrator, ISDN Provider, or telephone company
about whether or not there is an excessively congested ISDN
phone switch or some other similar kind of problem that needs
attention.
