Clearing Idle Connections Automatically
In the FRITZ!web settings you can specify how many seconds
the line is allowed to remain idle before the existing
connection to the Internet is automatically cleared down. An
example: You request a web page and view it in your
browser. While you are reading, no further data is requested
over the Internet connection. After the delay you have
specified in the settings, FRITZ!web hangs up the idle
connection. Now you can continue reading the Internet page
without accruing any further charges. The connection is not
re-established until you click a link or enter another URL.
Thanks to FRITZ!web’s fast dial-up, you will hardly notice that
the connection is being restored.
Specifying an Outgoing Caller ID
In order to keep track of the online costs incurred, you can
designate one of your line’s MSNs as the outgoing Caller ID
in the FRITZ!web “Settings” page, opened through the
context menu. All online charges will then be billed to the
specified number.
Call Bumping for 2-channel Internet Connections
FRITZ!web can be configured to clear the second B channel
for an incoming call during a 2-channel Internet connection.
When an incoming call is signaled, one B channel is cleared
down so that the call can be answered by the appropriate
terminal equipment. When the connection with the incoming
call is ended, the second B channel is switched back to the
Internet connection automatically.
For more information, see the FRITZ!web Online Help on the
“Channel Bundling” settings page in the “Settings” dialog.
