PPTP
Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) is a service that applies to connections in Europe and Israel only.
IP Address. This is the Router’s IP address, when seen from the WAN, or the Internet. Your ISP will provide
you with the IP Address you need to specify here.
Subnet Mask. This is the Router’s Subnet Mask, as seen by external users on the Internet (including your
ISP). Your ISP will provide you with the Subnet Mask.
Default Gateway. Your ISP will provide you with the Default Gateway Address.
User Name and Password. Enter the User Name and Password provided by your ISP.
Connect on Demand: Max Idle Time. You can configure the Router to cut the Internet connection after it has
been inactive for a specified period of time (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. In the Max Idle Time field, enter the number of minutes you want to have elapsed before your Internet
connection terminates.
Keep Alive Option: Redial Period. If you select this option, the Router will periodically check your Internet
connection. If you are disconnected, then the Router will automatically re-establish your connection. To use
this option, click the radio button next to Keep Alive. In the Redial Period field, you specify how often you
want the Router to check the Internet connection. The default Redial Period is 30 seconds.
When you have finished making changes to the screen, click the Save Settings button to save the changes,
or click the Cancel Changes button to undo your changes.
Optional Settings (Required by some ISPs)
Some of these settings may be required by your ISP. Verify with your ISP before making any changes.
Host Name and Domain Name. These fields allow you to supply a host and domain name for the Router. Some
ISPs require these names as identification. You may have to check with your ISP to see if your broadband Internet
service has been configured with a host and domain name. In most cases, leaving these fields blank will work.
MTU. The MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) setting specifies the largest packet size permitted for network
transmission. Select Enabled and enter the value desired. It is recommended that you leave this value in the
1200 to 1500 range. For most DSL users, it is recommended to use the value 1492. By default, MTU is set at 1500
when disabled.
