Telco options

Transfer
Type

This field specifies the type of connection between the Prestige and this
remote node. Select 64K, or Leased.

Multilink

The Prestige uses the PPP Multilane Protocol to bundle multiple links in
a single connection to boost the effective throughput between two nodes.
This option is only available if the transfer type is 64K. See Menu 11.2
for more details.

Idle Timeout

This value specifies the number of idle seconds that elapses before the
remote node is automatically disconnected. Idle seconds is the period of
time when no data is transmitted from your Prestige. Administrative
packets such as RIP are not counted as data. The default is 100
seconds. This option only applies when the Prestige initiates the call.

At this point, the SMT will ask if you wish to test the Internet connection. If you select Yes, your Prestige

will call the ISP to test the Internet connection. If the test fails, note the error message that you receive on the

screen and take the appropriate troubleshooting steps.
