tion daily. In this case enable

Always on

if the connection is to exist at all times when the Giga762SX

WLAN dsl is turned on.

Select

Connect on demand

if applications such as an Internet browser or an e-

mail program are to connect to the Internet automatically.

–

In the

Idle time before disconnect

field, enter a period after which the Internet

connection is to end automatically if no data is transmitted (the default setting is

3 minutes).

You can deactivate this function by entering "0". This means that the connection

will continue to exist even if no data is transmitted. If you are on a time-based tar-

iff, this can result in high charges. In this case you should enter a value other than

"0".

This time setting only applies to the

ally

options.

connection manually. If you are on a time-based tariff this will save you high con-

nection charges.
