Connect on demand:
If you
enable
this option, the router
automatically dials into the Internet
as
soon as your browser or a program opens that attempts to connect to the
Internet.
Disconnect when network idle:
Enter the
number of minutes
after which
the router should
disconnect the Internet connection when it is idle
.
Important information for DSL users who are billed based on data volume:
Please keep in mind that there are many
background programs
that
connect to the Internet
despite your browser being closed
and therefore the
connection is not disconnected
. Such
background programs are for example,
virus scanners
,
Windows Media Player
,
Windows
Update
and
trojans
. Therefore, so you are not surprised by an
excessive Internet bill
,
switch off
the router after you are finished using the Internet
to be completely sure that
no unwanted
connections can occur
.
Note T-Online users:
The
user name
consists of: the
12-digit connection ID, T-Online number
(if this is shorter than
12 digits, you must complete it with the # symbol),
4-digit user number
(e.g. 0001) and then
@t-
online.de
. Enter all components
consecutively without spaces
. The password is your
T-Online
access password
.
Note for AOL customers:
The
user name
consists of
your
AOL name
and
@de.aol.com
