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.
If you have received Bad Received Packets and are concerned about your
service, multiply the Bad Received Packets count by 1000 and compare the
result with the total Packets Received count. If the number is smaller than
the total Packets Received count, then the board is operating normally.
• ATM Transmission Side Statistics displays the number of packets transmitted.
• ATM Receive Side Statistics displays the number of good and bad packets
received.

Frequently Asked
Questions
This chapter provides the answers to some of the commonly
What is ADSL ?
ADSL, Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line is a broadband communication
technology designed for use on regular phone lines. It has the ability to
move data over the phone lines at speeds up to 140 times faster than
the analog modem available today.
asked questions on your modem.
Why is it called Asymmetric ?
It is called asymmetric because more bandwidth is reserved for receiving
data than for sending data. This is useful because many users of the
Internet receive much more data than they send.
What are the benefits of ADSL over analog modems ?
Besides the high-speed advantage, ADSL connection is always on. There
is no longer a need to log on and off, no more busy signals and no more
waiting for the connection to established - it is always there. On top of
these, you can use the phone even when the data connection is on. You
do not need to switch between surfing the Net and talking over the
phone.

C. Frequently Asked Questions
Will my modem constantly connect near the maximum speed ?
At ADSL speeds, the limitations are much more of the performance of the
Internet server you are trying to reach and the amount of traffic on the
Internet.
Can I connect to the SingTel Magix Service everywhere I go?
No, you cannot. You can connect to this service, only via ADSL phone
line enabled for the SingTel Magix Service provided by your ADSL Service
Provider.
Can I run both dial-up modem and ADSL modem?
Yes, but it is not recommended. You may experience slowness during
surfing as well as incurring additional cost of maintaining two active
connections.
Do I need to use Micro-Filter when using ADSL?
Yes, if you are sharing your DSL line with your telephone. The Micro-
Filter would eliminate noise on the telephone line to ensure the best
possible networked phone performance. All telephone line extensions
using the same telephone number will need to attach to a Micro-Filter. If
the DSL uses a different line and not sharing with your telephone, then a
Micro-Filter wouldnt be necessary.
How do I most efficiently connect Micro-Filters to my telephone network ?
Please refer to the diagram on the following page.
Generally, you should abide to the following rules:
1. There must not be any Micro-Filters between your ADSL modem card
and your Telephone Wall socket.
2. Micro-Filters are not required if you are not connecting to your
Telephone sets.
3. Restrict the number of Micro-Filters to a maximum of 4.

If your system is still not able to detect the modem, your PCI-Bus slot
may be faulty. Locate another available PCI-Bus slot and try again.
The MAPI Icon on the taskbar retrains (with blinking yellow LEDs)
every time I use the phone while surfing on the Internet.

D. Troubleshooting Guide
I am not able to remove the modem driver from my system (the MAPI
Icon is still at my taskbar). (For Windows 2000 and Windows XP only)
This can happen if you have removed the modem card from your system
before removing the modem driver.
Please carry out the following remedies to remove the modem driver.
1. Insert the modem card back to your PCI-Bus slot. It should be the
same PCI-Bus slot that you have previously inserted for your modem
card.
(If you see the MAPI icon being 'strike-off' and your system starts to re-detect
for your ADSL Modem, it means that you did not insert your modem card back
to correct PCI-Bus slot. At the prompt to install the ADSL Modem driver, click
Cancel. Shut-down your system, plug out the modem card and insert the card
to the correct PCI-Bus slot.)
2. Click Start > Programs > DSL700P > Uninstallation to remove
the driver.
My MAPI LEDs shows 2 black LEDs (indicating ADSL line established),
but I am still not able to surf the Internet.
Carry out the following steps to check the configurations for your Internet
connection:
1. Right-click on the MAPI Icon and select Configuration.
2. From the dialog box prompted, click PVC Table.
3. Check your settings. Correct Vpi/Vci, Protocol and Framing values
should be 0,101, 1577 and LLC/SNAP respectively.
Click Edit to make changes if required. For details, you may refer to
Appendix A - ADSL MAPI Icon, section A.2.5.
Another reason could be that you are not registered for the listed service.
Subscribe to the service and try again.
There is no sound when video is being streamed.
Ensure that Master Volume Control under the desktop system tray (bottom
right hand corner of your screen) is not set to mute.
