Configuring the Wireless Mobile Router

If you are unsure of which PC was originally set up by the broadband technician, call your ISP and request they register a new MAC address for your account. Register the default MAC address of the Wireless Mobile Router.

Point-to-Point Over Ethernet (PPPoE)

Enter the PPPoE User Name and Password assigned by your Service Provider (see Figure 37). The Service Name is normally optional, but may be required by some service providers.

The MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) governs the maximum size of the data packets. Leave this at the default value (1492) unless you have a particular reason to change it.

Enter a Maximum Idle Time (in minutes) to define a maximum period of time for which the Internet connection is maintained during inactivity. If the connection is inactive for longer than the Maximum Idle Time, it will be dropped. (Default: 0 minute)

Enable the Auto-reconnect option to automatically re-establish the connection as soon as you attempt to access the internet again.
