Note
The WAN “idle timeout” auto-disconnect function may not work due to abnormal activities of some network application
software, computer virus or hacker attacks from the Internet. For example, some software sends network packets to the
Internet in the background, even when you are not using the Internet. So please turn off your computer when you are not
using it. This function also may not work with some ISP. So please make sure this function can work properly when you use
this function in the first time, especially when your ISP charge you by time used.
