that may be applicable when you use a data connection to access the

Check with your system responsible whether your system is set up to
automatic activation of a standard data connection (plug-and-play).
Standard data
connection
Benefits Drawback
Automatic start
(system default)
Plug-and-play Risk of unintended use of costly
airtime, i.e. Windows update
downloads, frequent check for
new mail etc.
Manual start from
the web interface
(This must be
configured during
initial configuration)
Efficient
bandwidth
usage
You must start the web interface
at http://192.168.0.1 and click
once to start a connection.
Online software updates of the
connected devices (PC,
smartphone etc.) should only be
performed when you are
connected at the office or at
home where bandwidth and
airtime are less costly. Check the
documentation for the device
how to disable automatic
software updates.
