We prove the upper semicontinuity of solutions and the global attractor with respect to smooth approximations of the nonlinear term. We also give a complete description of the set of fixed points and study their stability. Finally, we analyze the existence of heteroclinic connections between the fixed points, obtaining information on the fine structure of the global attractor. %~
