Login Method

Internet access, leave this at the default value "None (Direct connec-
tion)"
Otherwise, check the documentation from your ISP, select the login
method used, and enter the required data.
PPPoE - this is the most common login method, widely used
with DSL modems. Normally, your ISP will have provided some
software to connect and login. This software is no longer re-
quired, and should not be used.
PPTP - this is mainly used in Europe. You need to know the
PPTP Server address as well as your name and password.
Big Pond Cable - for Australia only.
SingTel RAS - for Singapore only.

Select the desired option:
Automatic Connect/Disconnect
An Internet connection is automatically made when required, and
disconnected when idle for the time period specified by the
"Auto-disconnect Idle Time-out".
Manual Connect/Disconnect
You must manually establish and terminate the connection.
Keep alive (maintain connection)
The connection will never be disconnected by this device. If dis-
connected by your ISP, the connection will be re-established
immediately. (However, this does not ensure that your Internet IP
address will remain unchanged.)
Auto-disconnect
Idle Time-out
This field has no effect unless the setting above is Automatic Con-
nect/Disconnect.
If Auto-disconnect is being used, enter the desired idle time-out
period (in minutes). After the connection to your ISP has been idle for
this time period, the connection will be terminated.
