Select how Internet sessions are to be established via the Connection mode:
– Select Always on if the connection is to remain set up when the Gigaset SE366
WLAN is switched on.
– Select Connect on demand if applications such as a Web browser or an e-mail
program are allowed to connect to the Internet automatically.
– In the Idle time before disconnect field, enter a period of time after which the
Internet connection is to close down automatically if no data is transmitted
(default setting: 3 minutes, range: 1 to 99 minutes).
This time setting only applies to the Connect on demand option. A permanent
connection is achieved using the Always on option.
– Select Connect manually if you always want to establish and end the connection
to the Internet manually. If you subscribe to a time-based service this will save
you high connection charges. How to establish a connection manually is
described on page 77.

Click Test Settings to check the Internet connection. The device will attempt to con-
nect to the Internet. Any Internet connection already in existence will be closed first.
This displays information on the tests that have been carried out and their results.
You will then be returned to the Internet Connection screen. If necessary, you can
now correct your entries.
ì
If the test was successful, click OK to apply the settings.
PPPoE pass-through
If you activate the PPPoE pass-through function, a PC in the network can connect to the
Internet via its own connection ID. The router puts these connections through.

In the Advanced Settings – Internet menu, select the entry
Internet Connection.
ì
Select On to activate PPPoE pass-through.
ì
Click OK to apply the settings.
Note:
If you subscribe to a time-based service, this option can result in high connec-
tion charges.
