The Idle timeout setting defines how long your handheld waits before
dropping the connection with your ISP or dial-in server when you
switch out of a TCP/IP application.
To set the Idle timeout:
1. Tap the Idle timeout pick list and select one of the following
options:
Immediate: Drops the connection to your ISP immediately when
you switch to another application.
1 minute: Waits one minute for you to open another application
before it drops the connection.
2 minutes: Waits two minutes.
3 minutes: Waits three minutes.
Power Off: Keeps your PPP or SLIP connection until you turn off
your handheld (or until it times out). This option works best
with the PalmModem accessory.
