·
Login User Name
The User Name (or account name) provided by your ISP.
Login Password

Select the desired option:
·
Behavior
·
·
Auto-disconnect
This field has no effect unless using the Automatic Connect/Disconnect
Idle Time-out
setting.
If using this setting, enter the desired idle time-out period (in minutes). After
the connection has been idle for this time period, the connection will be
terminated.
Travel Mode (Hotel) - This is the default. No data needs to be input.
This setting will work in many situations, not just hotels.
PPPoE - this is the most common login method for DSL modems.
Normally, your ISP will have provided some software to connect and
login. If using the WAP-4050, this software is not required, and should
not be used.
PPTP - this is mainly used in Europe. You need to know the PPTP
Server address as well as your name and password.
L2TP - this is not widely used. You need to know the PPTP Server
address as well as your name and password.
No Login (Static IP address) - Use this if you have a static (fixed) IP
address, and do not need to login to a server to gain access to the LAN
or WAN.
Automatic Connect/Disconnect
A connection is automatically made when required, and disconnected
when idle for the time period specified by the Auto-disconnect Idle
Time-out.
Manual Connect/Disconnect
You must manually establish and terminate the connection.
Keep alive (maintain connection)
The connection will never be disconnected by this device. If
disconnected by the Server, the connection will be re-established
immediately. (However, this does not ensure that the Ethernet (WAN)
Port IP address will remain unchanged.)
