4.2 Setting the Automatic Disconnect
The automatic disconnect is a mechanism that will terminate your
communications session if no uplink activity (e.g. internet requests,
email traffic etc) is detected for the period specified. This is a safety
device that is especially important if you are using a circuit switched
uplink channel. Please note that some computer programmes,
software and web pages may automatically send internet requests
which could keep the session activated.
You can edit the “Inactivity timeout” for each uplink setting through
the User Interface as follows:
1.
Click on the “SETTINGS” tab and then the “UPLINK” tab.
2.
From the “Edit connection:” drop-down menu select the uplink
connection that you wish to edit.
3.
Enter the inactivity timeout period in seconds.
4.
Once the period has been entered click on “SAVE
CHANGES”.
