If the connection sits without transmitting for the specified time, the router will log out the PPP

connection. This helps relieve Internet congestion at the ISP level. The SpeedStream router also

provides a

Connect on Demand

feature wherein the router automatically reconnects when you

attempt to use the WAN connection.
