– Select
Connect on demand
if applications such as a Web browser or an e-mail
program are to connect to the Internet automatically.
– In the
Idle time before disconnect
field, enter a period of time after which the
Internet connection is to be automatically ended if no data is transmitted (default
setting: 3 minutes).
You can deactivate this function by entering "0". This means that the connection
will continue to exist even if no data is transmitted. If you have a time-based tar-
iff, this can result in high charges. In this case you should enter a value other than
"0".
This time setting only applies to the
Connect on demand
option.
– Select
Connect manually
if you always want to establish and end the connection
to the Internet manually. If you have a time-based tariff this will save you high
connection charges. How to establish a connection manually is described on
page 118.
