Prestige 650 ADSL Router
Remote Node Configuration 4-3
Nailed-Up Connection (PPP/PPPoE)
A nailed-up connection is a dial-up line where the connection is always up regardless of traffic demand.
The Prestige does two things when you specify a nailed-up connection.
The first is that idle timeout is disabled.
The second is that the Prestige will try to bring up the connection when turned on and whenever the
connection is down.
A nailed-up connection can be very expensive for obvious reasons. Do not specify a nailed-up connection
unless your telephone company offers flat-rate service or you need a constant connection and the cost is of
no concern.
