Once a ADSL line is activated thats it till its deactivated ( if it all works properly)
All ISPs use some kind of authentication or another or no one would be paying and we would all just be using the net free
Ive never seen the keep alive settings on ADSL routers in the field mind you I have not looked ive just set them up and left and often a year or so later they are still working the only time there isnt a connection is when its off or there is a problem
