number of minutes you wish the network to remain idle
before disconnection occurs in the “
Max Idle Time”
location.
Keep Alive:
This function keeps your PPPoE connection enable even
if it remains idle. However, in some situation, PPPoE
session cannot be established immediately after
disconnection. This is because the system on the ISP’s
site may need a little time to restore itself. You may need
to check with your ISP to obtain detail of how long you
need to wait before re-establish the PPPoE session. Enter
this information in the “
