PPP > Wakeup-on-Call
The Wakeup-on-Call feature allows the router to wake up and initiate a connection when there is an incoming call or LAN
activity. If you desired some security with this feature, you can set up the router to wake up based on Caller ID or SMS instead
of allowing all incoming calls to wakeup the router. Dial-on-Demand in the IP Setup menu must be enabled for these settings to
have any affect. The Wakeup-on-Call feature will reduce the cost incurred when a router is online and available 24/7.
Note: When provisioning this feature, you must allow incoming calls, sms capability, and/or caller-id.

Enable/disable the Wakeup-on-Call feature. The default is Disable. Wakeup on Call occurs when a
ring or caller ID is detected. This will trigger the router to reconnect after the 'Time Delay' expires.
Enter the amount of time that you want to pass between the reception of a call and the initiation of
the Wakeup-on-Call connection. A time delay is needed to make sure that the incoming call has
ended before the connection is initiated. The default is 10 seconds.
The default is disable. When enabled, the router will reconnect when it sees IP traffic on
the LAN is needed to route. If this feature is disabled, Dial-on-Demand initiates a PPP connection to
the Internet only from the WAN, not from the LAN.
Configure the router initialization strings. These init strings need to be specific to the integrated
cellular modem. Some initialization may be required for the integrated cellular modem to accept
SMS for 'Wakeup on Call'. Init-num can range from 1-5. The default is NULL. Refer to the following
examples.
Click the SUBMIT button to save these settings.
To add Caller ID to the Wakeup-on-Call function, enter the Caller ID to be allowed to
wakeup the router. Enter 'Ring' to wake up on any call. Enter a CID phone number or an SMS
message. The SMS message string must not contain any spaces between words.
After entering the Caller ID, click the Add button. The Caller ID displays at the bottom of screen.
You can enter any number of IDs you desire.
A Caller ID can be edited or deleted using Options, which will be available once a Caller ID is
displayed.
The configured string of (0 to 40 characters) will be sent to the integrated cellular
modem upon receiving a valid caller ID from the WAN. The default is NULL string.
Note: If the string is not configured, acknowledgement to the caller will not be sent upon successful
caller ID reception.
