◆ Maximum idle time (Default setting: 0 minutes)
This is the period of time after which the Internet connection is
closed down automatically if no data is transmitted. Entering
"0" deactivates the function. This means that the connection
will remain open even if no data is transmitted. This can lead to
high charges if you are using a time-based pricing system! In
this case, you should enter a value other than "0".
◆ Auto-reconnect (Default setting: deactivated)
Auto-reconnect means that applications such as Web browser,
Messenger and Email can automatically open an Internet
connection when they are launched. If you do not have Flat
rate , this can lead to high charges being incurred. Therefore the
default setting is deactivated. Please refer to page 86 for
manually opening a connection.
