Introduction
This chapter will assist you in getting acquainted with the STUSB and
will guide you through the first steps in preparing the STUSB for Internet
connectivity.
In the event of damaged or missing items, contact your local product
dealer for further instructions.
Your STUSB shipping carton may also include release notes, safety and
conformity declarations and other materials.
Unlike most traditional modems, the electronic circuitry of the STUSB
has been shaped into a stylish body. The input/output wiring is moulded
in an ergonomically designed pigtail.
On the rear end of the pigtail you find the USB connector. That's the
interface which connects the STUSB to your Personal Computer (PC).
The ADSL Line port is situated in the inline receptacle. This port
connects the STUSB to the ADSL highway.
Note: As you notice, there is no separate mains plug, cord, or power
adapter. This is because the STUSB is powered via the USB connection.

1.2What You Need
1 Get Acquainted to the Speed Touch USB
ADSL and telephone
service
WARNING
Service Provider
ADSL service must be enabled on your telephone line.
As both telephone and ADSL service are simultaneously available from
the same copper pair, you need a central splitter or distributed filters for
decoupling ADSL and telephone signals.
Contact your Service Provider for more information.
In all cases contact your ADSL Service Provider about splitter/filter
installation !
Public telephone lines carry voltages that can cause electric shock.
Only install splitter/filters yourself if these are qualified for that purpose.
Other splitter/filters may only be installed by qualified service personnel.
You must have a user account at an Internet Service Provider (ISP) for
Internet access:
For this user account, it will provide you:
A user name (logon ID)
A password.
Note: The STUSB supports two connection services: PPPoA and PPPoE.
Depending on the preferences of your Service Provider, the connection
service suitable for your connectivity to the Service Provider, hence the
Internet will be installed by the Installation CDRom delivered with your
STUSB.
PC or computer
3EC 36714 AAAA TCZZA Ed. 02
Your PC or computer must be equipped with an USB port capable of
powering attached USB devices. You may also use an USB hub to
connect the STUSB.
Note: Make sure you are not using lowpowered USB ports to connect
the STUSB. In case you are not sure of the type of USB port, see the

Two installation
methods
As your STUSB is a true PlugandPlay device you can use two different
installation procedures:
The Alcatel Wizard Installation
By inserting the STUSB Installation CDrom, a wizard automatically
guides you through all needed installation steps.
The PlugandPlay Compliant Installation
The installation procedure is initiated by connecting the STUSB to
your PC's USB port.
It does not matter which method you use, both are equally valid.
In this section, the Alcatel wizard installation is fully described. In case
you experience problems with this installation, you can try the
PlugandPlay compliant installation, shortly described at the end of this
section.
