mation from your ISP, you may

Router. The Host Name and
Domain Name fields are usu-
ally left blank. If requested by
your ISP (usually cable ISPs),
complete these two fields.

WAN Connection Type setting

PPTP. Depending on which con-

as the WAN Connection Type.

word provided by your ISP.
c If you select Connect on
Demand, the PPPoE connec-
tion will be disconnected if it
has been idle for a period
longer than the Max Idle Time
setting.

Router will keep the connec-
tion alive by sending out a few
data packets at the Redial

thinks that the connection is still
active.

PPTP is a service used in Europe and
Israel only. IF you are using a PPTP
connection, check with your ISP for
