I-Storm USB ADSL modem
Checking LAN Connection
Testing Ethernet LAN connection
This test passes if the Ethernet LAN interface is working properly.
Checking ADSL Connection
Testing ADSL Synchronization
46
This test checks your DSL modem to see if it can successfully
negotiate and establish a DSL connection with your service
provider's central office equipments. The test returns PASS if a DSL
connection is established. If this test returns FAIL, please try the test
again a few minutes after this test is completed. Since your DSL
modem need a couple of seconds to a few minutes to establish the
DSL connection depending on your phone line quality. If this test
returns FAIL, make sure your phone line is connected to your DSL
modem securely, and also check with your service provider to see if
I-Storm USB ADSL modem
your service is activated.
If this test returns FAIL, all other tests will be skipped.
Checking Circuit 0 for Network Connection
Test ATM OAM Segment Loop Back
This test sends ATM OAM F5 Segment loop back request cells to
the central office equipments through your DSL connection. This
test will pass if response cell is received. Since your service
provider might not support this test, your DSL modem could still
work even if this test fails.
If this test fails consistently and your DSL modem seems not
working, check to make sure the VPI and VCI are configured
correctly.
This test returns FAIL if the DSL synchronization test failed.
Test ATM OAM End-to-End Loop Back
This test sends ATM OAM F5 End-to-End loop back request cells
to the central office equipments through your DSL connection. This
test returns PASS if response cell is received. Since your service
provider might not support this test, your DSL modem could still
work even if this test fails.
47
If this test return FAIL consistently and your DSL modem seems
not working, check to make sure the VPI and VCI are configured
correctly.
This test returns SKIPPED if the DSL synchronization test
I-Storm USB ADSL modem
failed.
Test Ethernet connect to ATM
This test returns PASS if the ATM AAL5 module is loaded
correctly in your DSL modem. If this test returns FAIL, an internal
error has occurred.
This test returns SKIPPED if the DSL synchronization does not
return PASS.
Test PPPoE connection
This test returns PASS if your login name and password have
passed authentication with your service provider.
If this test returns FAIL, run this test again a few minutes after this
test is completed, especially if your PPP connection has just been
improperly disconnected. If this test consistently fails, first make
sure your login name and password are correct. Remember that
login name and password are case sensitive.
This test returns SKIPPED if “PPPPOE connect to Ethernet” test
does not return PASS and your DSL modem is configured as
PPPOE encapsulation.
This test also returns SKIPPED if “Ethernet connect to AAL5”
test does not return PASS and your DSL modem is configured
as PPPOA encapsulation.
Test PPP Layer connection
This test returns PASS if your DSL modem has been assigned a
valid IP address by your service provider through DHCP or your
DSL modem is assigned a valid IP address statically.
48
If this test returns FAIL, run this test again a few minutes after this
test is completed. If this test returns FAIL consistently and DHCP
client is turned on in your DSL modem, check with your service
provider. If this test returns FAIL consistently and your DSL
modem is statically assigned an IP address, make sure the IP
address is the correct one assigned by your service provider.
This test returns SKIPPED if “Ethernet connect to AAL5” test
I-Storm USB ADSL modem
does not return PASS.
Test IP connect to PPP
This test returns PASS if your DSL modem has been assigned a
valid IP address by your service provider through DHCP or your
DSL modem is assigned a valid IP address statically.
If this test returns FAIL, run this test again a few minutes after this
test is completed. If this test returns FAIL consistently and DHCP
client is turned on in your DSL modem, check with your service
provider. If this test returns FAIL consistently and your DSL
modem is statically assigned an IP address, make sure the IP
address is the correct one assigned by your service provider.
This test returns SKIPPED if “Ethernet connect to AAL5” test
does not return PASS.
Test IP connect to Ethernet
This test returns PASS if the gateway can be reached through ping
request. The gateway is assigned by your service provider, or
obtained from your service provider by PPP negotiation or
DHCP negotiation.
If this test returns FAIL, run this test again a few minutes after this
test is completed. If this test returns FAIL consistently and your
DSL modem seems not working, check to make sure your statically
assigned IP address is configured correctly or DHCP client is turned
on with the current VC.
49
This test returns SKIPPED if "IP connect to PPP" or "IP
I-Storm USB ADSL modem
connect to Ethernet" test does not return PASS.
