Connect on Demand - You can configure the router to disconnect from your Internet connection
after a specified period of inactivity (Max Idle Time). If your Internet connection has been terminated
due to inactivity, Connect on Demand enables the router to automatically re-establish your
connection as soon as you attempt to access the Internet again. If you wish to activate Connect on
Demand, click the radio button. If you want your Internet connection to remain active at all times,
enter “0” in the Max Idle Time field. Otherwise, enter the number of minutes you want to have
elapsed before your Internet connection terminates.
Caution: Sometimes the connection cannot be disconnected although you specify a time to Max Idle Time, since some applications are
visiting the Internet continually in the background.
