1. ADSL2, being the successor of the well-known ADSL standard, adds new features and
functionality targeted at improving performance and interoperability, and adds support for
new applications, services and deployment scenarios. Among the changes are improvements
in data rate and reach performance, rate adaption, diagnostics and stand-by mode.
2. RE-ADSL is an extension to G.992.3 ADSL2 that allows to significantly extend the reach of
throughput capabilities.
3. ADSL2+ is an extension to the ADSL2 standard that goes even further in offering optimal
broadbanding; it nearly doubles the maximum ADSL downstream data rates to up to 24Mb/s.

1.3.1Access via the Web Interface
ProcedureTo access the SpeedTouch™ via the web interface:
1Open a web browser.
2In the address bar type your SpeedTouch™’s IP address or DNS host name, by
default that is ‘192.168.1.254’ or ‘http://speedtouch.lan’.
You can access the pages via the http protocol. For remote assistance
the secure version, https, in combination with certificates are used;
you will have to provide your ISP with the https link, user name and
password before he can log on to the pages on your SpeedTouch™. For
more information, see “4.6.1 Remote Assistance” on page 76.
3As a result the SpeedTouch™ Home page appears, from where you can navigate
to all the configurable aspects of the SpeedTouch™.

Your SpeedTouch™
Command Line
Interface (CLI)
You can access the Command Line Interface (CLI) via:
The embedded Expert pages. For more information, see “5 Expert
Configuration” on page 107.
A Telnet session
This requires that TCP/IP connectivity exists between the host from which the
Telnet session is opened and the SpeedTouch™. Your SpeedTouch™ and the
connected PC must have an IP address in the same subnet.
The serial ‘Console’ interface
Quote site commands (over FTP)
For more information, see “ Quote site command” on page 24.
For information on CLI commands, see the SpeedTouch™ CLI Guide.
2At the prompt, type ftp followed by the IP address of your SpeedTouch™
(default is 192.168.1.254).
3Enter your SpeedTouch™ security user name and password.
4The example below shows an FTP session to the SpeedTouch™ file system:
File system structureThe structure of the file system is very simple: It consists of a single root directory
called root and two subdirectories called active and dl.
The root directory contains:
all the necessary files for the SpeedTouch™ to boot correctly
the active and the dl directories
The active directory contains the active software image.
The dl directory contains the passive software image.
If you made changes to the SpeedTouch™ configuration and saved
them, a user.ini service template file is created in the dl subdirectory.
