How do I change connection timeout?

I am trying to find the internet connection timeout parameters screen. This is my first time using Mac OSX and may first Mac. I know I saw it once but now I can't find it.

Can anyone step me through this? I'm using a dialup connection and am repeatedly being prompted to remain connected or to disconnect.

Thanks
 
Try going to PPP, then click PPP options. There's a box that you can enter a set time to disconnect in. By default, I think it is set at 10 minutes.
 
Thanks for your assistance, Eric. But I'm still confused about "going to PPP". Can you elaborate, please?
 
I'm speaking from the future but I hope you are still around to hear how useful you still are. I was going through a looooong list of discouraged people in a google search looking for an answer--everyone was stymied but you. My hero!! Thank you.
:D

Steps for changing connection timeout:

1. Move from RDP to Hostmachine.
2. Click Start --> Administrative Tools --> IIS Manager.
3. Expand your HOSTNAME then Websites after that enter into SERVICENAME.
4. After that Click to Properties.
5. On Web Site Tab change the value of Connection timeouts from 120(default) to 400(Any value you want.
6. Then restart the Service.
