Westell recommends that you use the Default parameter. Factory default = MANUAL

Selecting this feature allows you to manually establish your PPP session. Selecting this feature allows the Gateway to automatically re-establish your PPP session on demand anytime your PC requests Internet activity (for example, browsing the Internet, email, etc.). When you have traffic, it may cause a delay. Selecting this feature allows the Gateway to automatically establish a PPP session when you log on, or if the PPP session goes down.

Factory Default = DISABLED

Selecting this feature allows you to enable the timeout parameter of your PPP session, which is set to a factory default of 20 minutes.

Selecting this feature allows you to save the password for your new connection profile in VersaLink so that you will not have to re-enter it in case of a re-boot. This option allows you to specify the number of minutes that you want a PPP session to stay active before it is disconnected due to inactivity. (This feature works if you have selected the Time Out Enable feature explained above.)
