¾ Connect on Demand - You can configure the router to disconnect your Internet connection
after a specified period of inactivity (Max Idle Time). If your Internet connection has been
terminated due to inactivity, Connect on Demand enables the router to automatically
re-establish your connection as soon as you attempt to access the Internet again. If you
wish to activate Connect on Demand, click the radio button. If you want your Internet
connection to remain active at all times, enter 0 in the Max Idle Time field. Otherwise, enter
the number of minutes you want to have elapsed before your Internet connection
terminates.
Caution:
Sometimes the connection cannot be disconnected although you specify a time to Max Idle
Time. This is because there may still be active applications in the background, which may
cause fee accounted by your ISP.

you want your Internet connection to remain active at all times, enter 0 in the Max Idle Time
