Telstra Big Pond - Edimax Wireless Broadband Router User Manual

Idle Time Out 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. 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 your ISP charge you by time used. Due to the
many uncontrollable issues, we do not guarantee the WAN
"idle timeout" auto-disconnect function will always work. In
order to prevent from extra fee charged by ISP, please
TURN OFF THE ROUTER WHEN YOU FINISHED USING
THE INTERNET.
Click <OK> when you have finished the configuration above.
Congratulations! You have completed the configuration for the L2TP
connection. You can start using the router now, if you wish to use some of
the advance features supported by this router see chapter 2, 3, 4.

1.6 Telstra Big Pond

Select Telstra Big Pond if your ISP requires the Telstra Big Pond protocol
to connect you to the Internet. Your ISP should provide all the information
required in this section. Telstra Big Pond protocol is used by the ISP in
Australia.
If you select "Manual", the router will connect to ISP
only when you click "Connect" manually from the
Web user interface. The WAN connection will not be
disconnected due to the idle timeout. If the WAN line
breaks down and latter links again, the router will not
auto-connect to the ISP.
