Europe) for your Internet service. Follow these steps:

Under ISP Configuration, check the box next to Internet Connection Requires a
Login.
Under ISP Connection Type, choose L2TP.
Enter your user name (for example,
assigned to you by the ISP to access your account.
In the Secret field, enter the secret phrase used to log in to the server.
Choose the connection type:
• Keep Connected—The Internet connection is always on.
• Idle Time—The Internet connection is on only when traffic is present. If the
connection is idle—that is, no traffic is occurring—the connection is closed.
You might want to choose this if your ISP charges based on the amount of
time that you are connected. If you choose this connection type, enter the
number of minutes after which the connection shuts off in the Idle Time field.
In the My IP Address field, enter the IP address that the ISP assigned to you to
connect to the ISP server.
In the Server IP Address field, enter the IP address of the L2TP server.
