7.5.3 PPTP
Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol is a common connection method used for xDSL connections in Europe.
It can be used to join different physical networks using the Internet as an intermediary. If you have been
provided with the information as shown on the screen, enter the assigned IP address, subnet mask, default
gateway IP address, user ID and password, and PPTP Gateway. Configure the Connect mode option to the
desired settings. “Always On Line” signifies that the broadband router will maintain your Internet
connection consistently and automatically connect to the Internet after any disconnection. “Manual
Connect” signifies that the broadband router will establish an Internet connection only when the
administrator logs into the web management and manually presses the “Connect” button. While using the
“Connect On Demand” option, if the connection is inactive for longer than the Maximum Idle Time, it will
be dropped and will automatically re-establish the connection as soon as you attempt to access the Internet
again.
