	(e.g. 255.255.255.0)
Gateway	Enter the IP address of the ISP Gateway
User ID	Enter the User Name provided by your ISP for the PPTP
	connection. Sometimes called a Connection ID
Password	Enter the Password provided by your ISP for the PPTP
	connection
L2TP Gateway	If your LAN has a L2TP gateway, then enter that L2TP gateway
	IP address here. If you do not have a L2TP gateway then enter
	the ISP’s Gateway IP address above
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 want 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 Out	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
	THE ROUTER WHEN YOU FINISHED USING THE INTERNET.

Click <OK> when you have finished the configuration above. Congratulations! You have completed the configuration for the L2TPP connection. You can start using the router now.

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 ApplyDefault Domain Name Server DNS addressSecondary DNS Address optional 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 .
