Simply pass true as second parameter when emitting the authentication cookie:

FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage(Username, true)

This will create a persistent authentication cookie on the client whose expiration is handled by the timeout property in your web.config:

<forms 
   loginUrl="~/login.aspx" 
   defaultUrl="~/default.aspx"
   protection="All"
   timeout="3600"
</forms>
