Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of DSL700P ADSL Modem card!
ADSL, which stands for Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line, is the latest
communication technology that offers faster and uninterrupted Internet access.
The DSL700P is a PCI based Controller-less ADSL modem. It is capable of
data rate in both Full-Rate and G.Lite, with Full Rate transmission up to 8
Mbps downstream, 640 Kbps upstream and G.Lite transmission up to
1.5 Mbps downstream, 512 Kbps upstream.
With ADSL modem, you do not require a new phone line. Neither do you
need to switch your existing phone line between phone communication and
Internet surfing. The ADSL modem makes use of your existing phone line for
Internet surfing and at the same time, allows you to talk on the phone! As your
phone line is dedicated to your home, your connection to the Internet will also
be highly secured and reliable!
DSL700P definitely meets more than comfortably, the demands of todays
bandwidth intensive applications!

elastic strap at the other. Wear the strap around your wrist and
attach the clip to any non-painted metal surface of your computer
chassis.
»If you do not have a grounding strap, touch any non-painted surface
of your computer chassis before you begin installation, and again
every minute or so until the installation is completed.

A-2-3ADSL Status
This dialog box allows you to monitor the ADSL connection as well as the
transmit and receive line rates.
ADSL State displays the current status of the modem.
Protocol displays which ADSL standard is being used.
Transmit/Receive Rate shows the line rate for both the upstream and
downstream.
A-2-4ATM/ADSL Statistic
This dialog box keeps tabs on errors that might affect overall system
performance. The counts are reset whenever the PC system is restarted.
Re-training Count tracks the number of ADSL connections performed.
Due to unexpected line condition changes, the driver can retrain the
connection causing the Re-training Count to increase.
ADSL implements Reed Solomon (RS) error checking:
FEC Count tracks the forward error correction count.
CRC Count tracks the accuracy of correcting data errors over each 17msec.
ATM HEC Count (header error check) errors are recorded as an indication
of ATM packet accuracy.
As a measure of packet transfer performance, the Packet Errors are counted
and tracked against the total number of Packets Received. An error rate
of less than 0.1% is reasonable under clean ADSL line conditions.
