A Domain Name System (DNS) server is like an index of IP addresses and Web addresses. If

Note: This "idle timeout" 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. So please turn off your
computer when you are not using it. 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.
Check this box to enable Auto-reconnect. If Auto-reconnect is
enabled, the router will automatically connect to the ISP in the
first time when a user try to access Internet after the WAN line
being disconnected due to idle time out.
