The Maximum Dial Attempts field specifies the number of consecutive times that the modem will dial
the phone number before it stops attempting to establish a connection. If the number is 0, it will never
stop and dial until the connection is established. Otherwise, a Reconnect button will appear in the
Modem Main Menu after specified number of consecutive failed connection attempts. For Australian
A-tick compliance, a maximum number of 15 attempts is set when the country code is set to Australia
when the setting is found to be either 0 or above 15.

The Dial Interval field determines how many seconds to wait before re-initiating the link after it
terminates.

The Dial on Demand field specifies that this connection is to be designated "dial on demand", meaning
that establishment of the PPP connection is postponed until there is data to be transmitted via the
interface. Note that both of the addresses described below are mandatory if Dial on Demand is
enabled.

The Local IP Address and Remote IP Address fields specify the local and remote IP addresses,
respectively, to use on the PPP connection. Note that one or both of these addresses may be
overridden by a remote PPP server when a connection is established.
