•*IPPING sets the interval, in minutes, you want Keepalive to test the network connection. To disable Keepalive, set *IPPING to 0 (default setting).
Note: 15 minutes is the minimum time which can be set for Keepalive. If you set *IPPING for a value less than the minimum, the minimum value will be set.
•*IPPINGADDR sets the IP address you want to use for the connection test.
Caution: If *IPPINGADDR is left blank or is set to an invalid IP address (example, an IP which is unreachable or one which is not a valid IP address), modem performance will be adversely affected.

Keepalive is an optional feature. If you frequently pass data with your modem, you most likely do not need to have Keepalive enabled. When using Keepalive, be aware that a ping moves approximately 66 bytes of data over the network and is billable by your cellular provider. The following *IPPING settings will incur approximate monthly data usage in addition to any other data usage:
