Use the following
IP Address
The ISP gave you a static IP to be used to connect to the
L2TP server.
IP Address
This is the IP address that your ISP has given you to
establish a L2TP connection.
Subnet Mask
Enter the Subnet Mask provided by your ISP (e.g.
255.255.255.0)
Gateway Enter the IP address of the ISP Gateway
User ID
Enter the User Name provided by your ISP for the PPTP

Password
Enter the Password provided by your ISP for the PPTP

This is optional. You can specify the maximum size of
your transmission packet to the Internet. Keep default

Connection Type
If you select “Continuous”, the router will maintain the

links again at a latter time, the router will auto-reconnect
to the ISP. If you select “Connect On Demand”, the router
will connect to the ISP automatically when someone
wants to use the Internet and keep connected until the
WAN idle timeout. The router will close the WAN
connection if the time period that no one is using the
Internet exceeds the “Idle Time”. If you select “Manual”,
the router will connect to ISP only when you click
“Connect” manually from the Web user interface. The
WAN connection will not be disconnected due to the idle
timeout. If the WAN line breaks down and latter links
again, the router will not connect to the ISP by itself.
Idle Time Out
The WAN “idle timeout" auto-disconnect function may not
work due to abnormal activities of some network
application software, computer virus or hacker attacks
from the Internet. For example, some software sends
network packets to the Internet in the background, even
