Note! If you are using a mobile phone, make sure the call back number the
server uses is your ’data’ number, and not your ‘voice’ number. Contact your
phone network operator if you are unsure about this.
…change the length of time I stay connected for?
You can change both:
• The length of time that your MC 218 stays connected to the Internet when
no data is being transferred to or from your machine, and
• The length of time your MC 218 stays connected after you have closed any
programs which use the connection.
To change the connection time:
1. Open the Internet section of the Control panel on the Desktop screen.
2. In the If idle, stay online for line, set the length of time you want the
connection to stay open when no data is being transferred between
machines. The minimum setting for this is 1 minute.
3. In the On exit, stay online for line, set the length of time you want the
connection to stay open when you have closed all communications
programs.
