If the router does not receive a DNS server IP address to be used with a dial-
out, the checkbox "Request DNS server address" must be disabled. Otherwise,
it might happen that a connection cannot be established.

Configure Leased Line Operation
You can configure the MLR 3G 2.0 to permanently maintain a PPP connection. This oper-
ating mode is interesting for private networks with no minute charges, or for billing
models, for which only the transmitted data volume is charged for (e.g. packet-based
networks). In this operating mode, the MLR 3G 2.0 will immediately establish the connec-
tion after system start. The MLR 3G 2.0 checks the connection for its function periodi-
cally. The connection check can be performed either via a DNS query of a host name or
via PING at a host.
Configuration with the web interface
In order to
configure a leased line
, check in the menu "Dial-Out" on the page
"Dial-Out" the checkbox "Connect immediately and hold connection".
If necessary, enter another time in minutes for the
connection check
into the
entry field "Interval for checking connection". The default setting is 60 min-
utes. If a closed connection is determined after this time, the MLR 3G 2.0 will
attempt to re-establish the connection after one minute. If the attempt fails,
there will be another attempt after 5 minutes. The next attempt will take
place after 30 minutes; if this attempt fails as well, the MLR 3G 2.0 will at-
tempt to re-establish the connection every 60 minutes.
Select the
method for connection check
using the radio buttons behind "Type
to check the connection" and enter a host name or an "IP address". The two
methods have a different effect. A failed DNS request terminates a possibly
existing connection and re-establishes the connection. A failed ping will make
sure that the connection is re-initiated, if it was closed after the last data
packet or ping. The existing connection is not terminated, if the ping is not re-
sponded to.
