ADSL2+ Gateway with VoIP
• Connect on Demand: Max Idle Time. You can configure the Gateway to disconnect the Internet
connection after it has been inactive for a specified period of time (Max Idle Time). If your Internet
connection has been terminated due to inactivity, Connect on Demand enables the Gateway to
automatically re-establish your connection as soon as you attempt to access the Internet again. To use
this option, click the Connect on Demand radio button. In the Max Idle Time field, enter the number of
minutes you want to have elapsed before your Internet connection terminates.
• Keep Alive: Redial Period. If you select this option, the Gateway will periodically check your Internet
connection. If you are disconnected, then the Gateway will automatically re-establish your connection. To
use this option, click the Keep Alive radio button. In the Redial Period field, specify how often you want
the Gateway to check the Internet connection. The default Redial Period is 20 seconds.
Bridged Mode Only
If you are using your Gateway as a bridge, which makes the Gateway act like a stand-alone modem, select
Bridged Mode Only. All NAT and routing settings are disabled in this mode.
Optional Settings (required by some ISPs)
• Host Name and Domain Name. These fields allow you to supply a host and domain name for the Gateway.
Some ISPs require these names as identification. You may have to check with your ISP to see if your
broadband Internet service has been configured with a host and domain name. In most cases, you can leave
these fields blank.
• MTU and Size. The MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) setting specifies the largest packet size permitted for
network transmission. Select Manual and enter the value desired in the Size field. It is recommended that
you leave this value in the 1200 to 1500 range. By default, MTU is configured automatically.
Network Setup
• Router IP. The values for the Gateway's Local IP Address and Subnet Mask are shown here. In most cases,
keep the default values.
• Local IP Address. The default value is 192.168.1.1.
• Subnet Mask. The default value is 255.255.255.0.
• Network Address Server Settings (DHCP). Configure the Gateway's Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
(DHCP) settings in this section.
