Connecting to the net on logout

[voice-]

Finally got my Draytek router to work, now I have to understand the POS. Whenever I tell my Macs to connect through DHCP they launch the net through the router ad my ISDN line. Fnally all my network is online. One problem thou, they connect to often. One problem I've noticed is that when I log out a user to log another one in the router connects to the net. Now, why the hell would it wanna do that?
How do I:
a) Make it NOT connect on logout
b) Make the router a bit more picky on what to take seriously(so I have to click 'OK' to connect)

I have no idea why you are seeing packets sent when users log out. But I can tell you that with a setup like yours, the computer expects to be online all the time. When you log out, for example, people can still access a web site you serve up via apache.

One option is to create a script, set to run as root, that will deactivate your network interfaces when people log out.

You may wish to learn a utility like ettercap, so you can monitor the network activity, and figure out what is really going on.

Lemme know if you think this will help, and I'll help you write the script.
