Next, select the connection type (Manual, On Demand, Always On) that you want to use for your default connection
profile.
• Manual: Select this option if you want to manually establish your PPP session.
• On Demand: Select this option if you want the Router to automatically reestablish your PPP session on
demand anytime your PC requests Internet activity (for example, browsing the Internet, email, etc.). Please note
that when you have Internet traffic, this setting may cause a delay.
• Always On: Select this option if you want the Router to automatically establish a PPP session when you log on
or if the PPP session goes down. The Router’s factory default setting is Always On.
If you enable the Router’s timeout feature, the Router will end the PPP session upon reaching the number of minutes
you specify for connection timeout. To configure connection timeout, do the following:
1. In the Connection Type field, select either Manual or On Demand as the connection setting.
NOTE: The Time Out Enable feature does not apply to Always On, only to On Demand and Manual, and the
timeout option will be dimmed if you select Always On. The Router’s default connection type is Always On.
2. Next, click the Time Out Enable check box (a check mark will appear in the box).
3. Type the number of minutes in the Minutes for Connection Time Out box.
