5 Getting acquainted with ADSL

ADSL works via your existing analogue telephone line or digital ISDN line. This means that the ADSL signal and your existing telephone or ISDN signal enter your house via one cable. These two signals must be separated from each other if you still wish to use your telephone whilst accessing the Internet. The two signals are separated using a splitter/filter. A filter ensures that the telephone signal is filtered out of the ADSL/telephone connection. If you do not use a filter, you will hear the ADSL data traffic over the telephone line. The splitter/filter provides two connections: one for the telephone and one for ADSL. The splitter/filter is fitted at the start of the incoming telephone line. From the splitter/filter, the line goes to the ADSL modem and your existing telephone or, for ISDN, to your existing ISDN (NT1) converter. Depending on the subscription that you have with your Internet Service Provider or your ADSL line supplier, you may have already received this splitter/filter. If you do not have a splitte r/filter, you will not b e able to use your t elephone when you are connected to the Internet. You can purchase a splitter/filter from your local telephone shop. ADSL is divided into three groups:

 Annex A – ADSL via an analogue telephone line, also called a PSTN line.  Annex B – ADSL via ISDN.  Annex C – (mainly used in Japan, not in Europe).

Depending on the subscription provided by your Internet Service Provider, you use either Annex A or Annex B. Contact your ISP for information regarding the type of ADSL line you have.

Use the Trust 235A Speedlink ADSL Web Modem for Annex A Use the Trust 245B Speedlink ADSL Web Modem for Annex B

Your subscription is provided by two parties, namely your ISP and your ADSL line provider. This can vary per country and sometimes one provider supplies both services (ISP and ADSL line). In many cases, you, as the user, will not notice this. Contact your ISP if you have any questions regarding your subscription. The settings for your ADSL modem mainly depend on the ADSL line provider. These settings are also known by your ISP. It may also be possible that two different ISP’s use the same ADSL line provider. This means that certain settings will be the same for these ISP’s. Since there are more ISP’s than ADSL line providers, we have included a number of ADSL line providers in the settings for the Trust Speedlink ADSL Web Modem. You then only have to select the correct ADSL line provider without having to enter the settings yourself. The automatic installation procedure is described in chapter 7.1. Contact your ISP to find out who provides your ADSL line. You will have to input the settings manually if your ADSL line provider is not included in the list in the installation software or if the settings have been altered. There are 4 settings which are crucial for connecting to your ISP (plus the other requirements stated in chapter 4). These are:

 Network (Internet) protocol: (PPPoA, PPPoE, Bridged/Routed Internet).  VPI value: (a value between 0 and 255) (0 < x > 255).  VCI value: (a value between 32 and 65535) (32 < x > 65535).  Encapsulation protocol: (LLC/SNAP, VCMUX).

The manual installation procedure is described in chapter 7.2. Contact your ISP for the correct settings.

Note: It is not always the case that if you use an ISDN line for your telephone

conversations that you r ADSL subscription will au tomatically be Annex B. Always contact your ISP to find out which type of ADSL line you have.

6 Uninstalling old drivers and devices

The most common cause of faults during installation is the presence of a driver for a similar, old device. The best solution is to first remove all drivers related to old devices before installing the new driver. Make sure you only delete programs for old, unused (similar) devices.

1. Enter the Windows ‘Safe Mode’ (press F8 when starting Windows and then select ‘Safe Mode’ from the menu which will be displayed).

2. Click on ‘Start – Settings – Control Panel’ and double-click on the ‘Add/Remove Programs’ icon.

3. Find all the programs for similar, old devices and remove these by clicking on the ‘Add/Remove’ button. When in the ‘Safe Mode’, it is possible for some programs to appear twice. In that case, remove all the programs which appear twice.

4. Restart the computer.

Note: Do not remove your modem’s drivers. Note: Do not delete any existing dial-up connections via an analogue or

ISDN modem. This will allow you to access the Intern et during installation if you encounter any problems.

7 Installation

As previously explained in chapter 5 (Getting Acquainted with ADSL), the installation of the 235A and 245B Speedlink modem can be carried out in two different ways. The automatic installation and configuration is described in chapter 7.1. During the automatic installation and configuration, you select your ISP from a list of ISP’s. This has pre-programmed settings which are necessary for connecting to the Internet. If the correct Internet Service Provider is not included in the list, see chapter 7.2 for instructions on how to manually install and configure the modem. Note: The latest drivers can be downloaded from www.trust.com/13141-

02/download and www.trust.com/13365-02/download. Check whether a

new driver is available and use this for the installation. The current version of the driver is included on the Trust Installation CD-ROM.

Note: Make sure all other programs are closed during the installation. Note: During installation in Windows XP, you may receive a message saying

that the driver has not been signed. This does not cause a problem for the functionality.

Note: In the example, ‘D:\’ is used to indicate the CD-ROM drive. This may be

different for your computer.
