L2TP
Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) is a service that tunnels Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) across the Internet. It
is used mostly in European countries. Check with your ISP for the necessary setup information.
IP Address
. This is the Router’s IP address, when seen from the WAN, or the Internet. Your ISP will provide
you with the IP Address you need to specify here.
Subnet Mask
. This is the Router’s Subnet Mask, as seen by external users on the Internet (including your
ISP). Your ISP will provide you with the Subnet Mask.
Gateway
. Your ISP will provide you with the Default Gateway Address.
L2TP Server
. Enter the IP address of the L2TP server.
User Name and Password
. Enter the User Name and Password provided by your ISP.
Connect on Demand and Max Idle Time
. You can configure the Router to cut the Internet connection after it
has been inactive for a specific period of time (Max Idle Time). If your Internet connection has been
terminated due to inactivity, Connect on Demand enables the Router to automatically re-establish your
connection as soon as you attempt to access the Internet again. If you wish to activate Connect on Demand,
click the Connect on Demand option and enter the number of minutes you want to have elapsed before your
Internet connection terminates in the
Max Idle Time
field.
Keep Alive and Redial Period
. This option keeps your Internet access connected indefinitely, even when it
sits idle. If you select this option, the Router will periodically check your Internet connection. If the connection
is down, then the Router will automatically re-establish the connection. To use this option, click the radio
button next to
Keep Alive
. The default Redial Period is
30
seconds.

your ISP to see if your broadband Internet service has been configured with a host name. In most cases, leaving
this field blank will work.
Domain Name
: Some ISPs, usually cable ISPs, require a domain name as identification. You may have to check
with your ISP to see if your broadband Internet service has been configured with a domain name. In most cases,
leaving this field blank will work.
