Parameter

Description

User Name

Enter the User Name provided by your ISP for the PPPoE

 

connection

Password

Enter the Password provided by your ISP for the PPPoE

 

connection

Service Name

This is optional. Enter the Service name should your ISP

 

requires it, otherwise leave it blank.

MTU

This is optional. You can specify the maximum size of your

 

transmission packet to the Internet. Leave it as it is if you to not

 

wish to set a maximum packet size.

Connection Type

If you select “Continuous”, the router will always connect

 

to the ISP. If the WAN line breaks down and links again,

 

the router will auto-reconnect to the ISP.

 

If you select “Connect On Demand”, the router will auto-

 

connect to the ISP when someone wants to use the Internet

 

and keep connected until the WAN idle timeout. The router

 

will close the WAN connection if the time period that no

 

one is using the Internet exceeds the “Idle Time”.

 

If you select “Manual”, the router will connect to ISP only

 

when you click “Connect” manually from the Web user

 

interface. The WAN connection will not disconnected due

 

to the idle timeout. If the WAN line breaks down and latter

 

links again, the router will not auto-connect to the ISP.

Idle Time

You can specify an idle time threshold (minutes) for the WAN

 

port. This means if no packets have been sent (no one using the

 

Internet) during this specified period, the router will automatically

 

disconnect the connection with your ISP.

 

Note: The WAN "idle timeout" auto-disconnect function may not

 

work due to abnormal activities of some network application

 

software, computer virus or hacker attacks from the Internet. For

 

example, some software sends network packets to the Internet in

 

the background, even when you are not using the Internet. This

 

function also may not work with some ISP. So please make sure

 

this function can work properly when you use this function in the

 

first time, especially your ISP charge you by time used. Due to

 

the many uncontrollable issues, we do not guarantee the WAN

 

"idle timeout" auto-disconnect function will always work. In order

 

to prevent from extra fee charged by ISP, please TURN OFF

You can assign priority for each type of application and reserve bandwidth for it. The packets of applications with higher priority will always go first. Lower priority applications will get bandwidth after higher priority applications get enough bandwidth. This can let you have a better experience in using critical real time services like Internet phone, video conference …etc. All the applications not specified by you are classified as rule name “Others”. The rule with smaller priority number has higher priority the rule with larger priority number has lower priority. You can adjust the priority of the rules by moving them up or down Enable/Disable QoS Add a QoS rule into the table QoS Rule rule and click “Move Down” to make its priority lowerThe name of this rule Select the WAN ports that the packets matchingBandwidth Source AddressSource MAC Address Source IP AddressReset ApplySecondary DNS Address optional DefaultDomain Name Server DNS address Enable/Disable Password/KeyProvider DynDNS2.3 LAN LAN IPIP Address Pool Lease TimeDomain Name 192.168.2.100 to End IP 192.168.2.199 .
