Leave the Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) at the default
value (1460) unless you have a particular reason to change it.

Enter a maximum Idle Time Out (in minutes) to define a
maximum period of time for which the PPTP connection is
maintained during inactivity. If the connection is inactive for
longer than the Maximum Idle Time, it will be dropped.
(Default: 3 minutes)

Connect Mode

Always On Line: If you enable this, idle time is not taken into
account. The connection will always be alive.

Manual Connect: When the connection is broken by the idle
time, you must press Connect button on the Status page to
reconnect.

Connect On Demand: When the connection is broken by the
idle time, any trigger can make the connection alive.

Note:

If you are on a leased line or pay-per min. connection,
please set your maximum idle time to 3 minutes. This
will cause your Internet connection to drop after
3 minutes of idle time so you won’t be charged for extra
online time from your ISP.
