Congratulations on your purchase of the Wireless Barricade™ g
Broadband Router. SMC is proud to provide you with a powerful
yet simple communication device for connecting your local area
network (LAN) to the Internet.
Important Information!
This information is addressed to the DSL-Users without
a flat rate contract**.
With your DSL-router you have received a device of high quality,
which allows you fast and easy access to the Internet.
The factory default settings of this router have been done in
a way to provide you with uninterrupted access and use of the
Internet. With this background for cost reasons we recommend
that you enter into a "flat rate" - contract with your DSL-line
provider.
Why should you do that?
Please consider that a router, an entirely independent working
device, does not switch off automatically when shutting off your PC!
You may trigger such an automatic shut-off by setting a so called
"idle-time" (for details consult your manual at PPPoE or PPTP WAN
access configuration). Depending at the set time (1 to 5 min) the
router cuts the DSL-link when idle, indeed. But this still does not
provide for 100% security.
This disconnect only happens if there are no more open requests
received from either the LAN or the WAN side (here this can be
requests from the internet, i.e. initiated through the use of so
called file sharing programs like eMule, eDonkey, etc.) that
keep the router active.
