Internet, the Internet connection is established. When the idle
time-out period expires, the Internet connection is terminated.

The idle time-out specifies how long the modem router keeps the
Internet connection active when no one on the network is using the
Internet connection. The default is 5 minutes. To disable the idle
time-out, enter 0. (When you disable the idle time-out, the connection
is not terminated automatically).
