Time to Finish

Select this option to allow each subscriber a one-time login. Once the subscriber logs in,

 

 

 

the system starts counting down the pre-defined usage even if the subscriber stops the

 

 

 

Internet access before the time period is finished.

 

 

 

If a subscriber disconnects and reconnects before the allocated time expires, the

 

 

 

subscriber does not have to enter the user name and password to access the Internet

 

 

 

again.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Accumulation

Select this option to allow each subscriber multiple re-login until the time allocated is

 

 

 

used up.

 

 

Idle Time Out

The ZyAIR automatically disconnects a computer from the network after a period of

 

 

 

inactivity. The subscriber may need to enter the username and password again before

 

 

 

access to the network is allowed.

 

 

 

Specify the idle timeout between 1 and 1440 minutes. The default is 5 minutes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Post-Paid

A subscriber can access the Internet without a pre-defined usage time. The printout only

 

 

 

shows the username and password. The hot spot operator can also use the optional

 

 

 

keypad to terminate an account.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Only the three-button printer with an optional keypad supports

 

 

 

 

 

the post-paid function.
