If your DSL rate is charged according to online time, you should have the Internet connection cleared whenever you are not exchanging data with the Internet to save online costs. This allows you to save on online charges.
Select the option "Hang up after ... seconds" and enter the time after which an idle connection is to be cleared automatically. Now the Internet connection will be cleared automatically whenever the connected computers do not request data from the Internet for the specified period.
Note: When a connection to the Internet has been cleared, you cannot be reached by telephone over the Internet.
If your rate is not charged according to online time, select the option "Maintain Internet connection permanently". Then the FRITZ!Box is always connected with the Internet. If your Internet Service Provider clears the connection at regular intervals, for instance every 24 hours, FRITZ!Box restores the connection immediately.
