Press [SPACE BAR] and then press [ENTER] to select the method that the Prestige
uses to check the DSL connection.
Select DSL Link to have the Prestige check the DSL connection's physical layer. Select
ICMP to have the Prestige periodically ping the IP addresses configured in the Check
WAN IP Address fields.
Configure this field to test your Prestige's WAN accessibility. Type the IP address of a
reliable nearby computer (for example, your ISP's DNS server address).
When using a WAN backup connection, the Prestige periodically pings the addresses
configured here and uses the other WAN backup connection (if configured) if there is no
response.
Type the number of times (2 recommended) that your Prestige may ping the IP
addresses configured in the Check WAN IP Address field without getting a response
before switching to a WAN backup connection (or a different WAN backup connection).
