Managing Data Calls

You can set a Netopia Router to make scheduled connections using designated connection profiles. This is useful for creating and controlling regularly scheduled periods when the router can be used by hosts on your network. It is also useful for once-only connections that you want to schedule in advance.

The Netopia R2020 Dual Analog Router can answer calls as well as initiate them. To answer calls, the Netopia R2020 uses a Default Answer Profile. The Default Answer Profile controls how incoming calls are set up, authenticated, filtered, and more.
