Configuring Advanced Settings
ì
Enter the data you have been given by your service provider: Protocol, User name,
Password.
Only if you have selected PPPoE as the protocol and if you want to set up a number of
connection services with this protocol:
ì
Enter the name of the connection given to you by your service provider in the
Access concentrator name field.
ì
Apply the default settings for the parameters IP address type, IP address, MTU,
Line mode, Encapsulation, QoS class and VPI / VCI unless your service provider has
provided you with other data. The default settings also depend on your choice of
country.
Note:
To configure the Internet connection successfully, you must enter the details
given by your provider in all fields.
ì
If you have connected an external modem and chosen the connection type
Ethernet, enter the values for VLAN tag for each connection type that you have
received from your Internet service provider.
The Line mode, Encapsulation, QoS class and VPI / VCI boxes are then deactivated.
ì
Your Internet service provider may disconnect and reconnect your Internet connec-
tion daily. In this case enable 24h reconnection and choose the period of time in
which the reconnection should be performed from the Reconnection time option
menu.
ì
Specify how Internet sessions are to be established via Connection mode:
– Select Always on if the connection is to exist at all times when the Gigaset SX761
dsl is turned on.
Notes:
You must set up the Always on option if you wish to use Internet telephony.
u
If you are on a time-based tariff, this option can result in high connection
u
charges.
– Select Connect on demand if applications such as an Internet browser or an e-
mail program are to connect to the Internet automatically.
– In the Idle time before disconnect field, enter a period after which the Internet
connection is to end automatically if no data is transmitted (the default setting is
3 minutes).
This time setting only applies to the Connect on demand and Connect manu-
ally options.
– Select Connect manually if you always want to establish and end the Internet
connection manually. If you are on a time-based tariff this will save you high con-
nection charges.
