Configuration Changes Reset WAN Connection
The menu supports delaying some configuration changes until after the Netopia Router is restarted.
If your Netopia Router is preconfigured by your service provider, or if you are not remotely configuring the router,
you can leave this setting unchanged.
The purpose of this feature is to defer configuration changes only when remotely configuring or reconfiguring the
Netopia Router to prevent premature Telnet disconnection. When this feature is enabled, no changes to the
WAN setup, datalink encapsulation, Connection Profiles, or Default Gateway will take effect until after the
Netopia Router is restarted. Until the Netopia Router is restarted the WAN link and the routing table remain
unaffected.
A single setting in the Advanced Connection Options screen controls this feature, as shown below.
