IP Address A static IP address is a fixed IP that your ISP gives you. A dynamic IP address is not
fixed; the ISP assigns you a different one each time you connect to the Internet. The
Single User
Account feature can be used with either a dynamic or static IP address.
Select Obtain an IP Address Automatically if you have a dynamic IP address;
otherwise select Static IP Address and type your ISP assigned IP address in the IP
Address text box below.
Connection
Select Connect on Demand when you don't want the connection up all the time and
specify an idle time-out (in seconds) in the Max. Idle Timeout field. The default
setting selects Connection on Demand with 0 as the idle time-out, which means
the Internet session will Select Nailed-Up Connection when you want your
connection up all the time. The BIPAC 5100S will try to bring up the connection
automatically if it is disconnected.
