The IP address of the secondary domain name server will be used to
resolve a website’s URL IP address if the Primary DNS Address fails.
The information in this field should also be provided by your ISP and is
only to be completed if the Static PPPoE button is selected.

Time
A value of 0 means that the PPP connection will remain connected. If
your network account is billed according to the amount of time the
Router is actually connected to the Internet, enter an appropriate Idle
Time value (in seconds). This will disconnect the Router after the WAN
connection has been idle for the amount of time specified. The default
value = 5.

This field refers to the Maximum Transfer Unit, which is the maximum
size of a packet, in bytes, that will be accepted by the router. The
default setting is 1492 bytes. This field should not be altered unless
instructed by your ISP.
Connect Mode

PPPoE (Russia)
Some PPPoE connections use a static IP route to the ISP in addition to the global IP settings for the
connection. This requires an added step to define IP settings for the physical WAN port.
PPPoE (Russia) connection setup
To configure a PPPoE Russia Internet connection, configure as previously described for PPPoE connections
and add the physical WAN IP settings as instructed from the ISP.

rotocol is used to transfer information securely between VPNs (Virtual
Private Routers). Encryption methods are employed in the transfer of information between you and your ISP
using a key encryption. This option is specific for European users whose ISPs support the PPTP protocol for
the uplink connection. To connect to your ISP’s server using this protocol, the information in this window
must be provided to you by your ISP and then properly implemented.
PPTP connection setup menu
There are two ways to enable the router to become a PPTP client, one is through assigning the router an IP
address dynamically, which means that the DHCP protocol will be implemented by the Router to
automatically configure the IP settings. The user may input the IP settings manually by choosing the Static
IP option above the configuring area. To configure the router to be a PPTP client, complete the following
fields and click the
Save Settings
button.
