What is ADSL?

Your Prestige 630 ADSL USB Modem

Congratulations on the purchase of your new modem! Your modem combines the super-fast speed of state­of-the-art ADSL (Asynchronous Digital Subscriber Line) technology with the ease of setup and operation
facilitated by a Plug and Play USB (Universal Serial Bus) interface.

About AD S L

Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) technology provides high-speed data access across regular
phone wire (copper wires) by making use of previously unused bandwidth above the voice band frequency.
By placing the ADSL signal above the frequency of voice signals, ADSL service is able to coexist on the
same line with your telephone service. ADSL is asymmetric in the sense that it provides a higher downstream
data transfer rate (receive) than upstream data transfer rate (transmit). Asymmetric operation is ideal for
typical home and small office use where files and information are downloaded more frequently than
uploaded.

Advantages of ADSL

1. ADSL transforms plain old telephone lines into a high-speed conduit for data, information,

entertainment and more while simultaneously allowing you to use your telephone - this provides
enormous advantages at home and at work.

2. ADSL provides affordable high-speed remote access to the Internet, corporate networks and on-line

services over ordinary phone lines.

! Over 100 times faster than 56 Kbps modems.
! 70 times faster than 128 Kbps ISDN modems.

3. ADSL enables the use of real-time, interactive multimedia and broadcast-quality video for services such

as collaborative computing, video conferencing, distance learning and video-on-demand.

4. ADSL provides a private, dedicated and secure channel of communications (unlike cable telephone and

modem services where the line is shared) between you and your service provider.

5. Because your line is dedicated (not shared), transmission speeds are not affected by other users. With

cable modems, transmission speeds drop significantly as more users go on-line because the line is
shared.

6. ADSL is "always on" (connected) - just like your telephone. This means that there is no time wasted

dialing up the service several times a day and waiting to be connected; ADSL service is always on
standby, ready for use whenever you need it.

What is ADSL? xi

Prestige 630 ADSL USB Modem

What is USB?

USB (Universal Serial Bus) is an external interface data communication standard for a peripheral bus that
was developed by Intel and Microsoft. USB is commonly referred to as a Plug and Play - meaning that your
computer will instantly recognize (auto-detect) your new device (your Prestige). Plug and Play means that
you require no technical expertise to install your device, installation times are greatly reduced and that you
simply plug your USB cable in and follow a limited set of easy-to-understand automatically generated
instructions. Set-up and operation has never been easier.

Advantages of USB

1. Replaces the need for a plethora of connectors and ports on computers and provides an interface for

computer-telephony devices. Instead of having separate connections for keyboard, mouse, printer,
modem, joystick, audio devices, CD-ROMs, digital cameras and other devices, USB provides a single
port to connect all of the devices (via hub).

2. USB eliminates many of the problems associated with (physically) opening your computer to install

adapter cards, change dip switches and configure IRQs (Interrupt Requests).

3. USB defines the ports and the bus topology with data transfer rates up to 12 Mbps. A single cable up to

5 meters in length is used to daisy-chain devices to a single port. Up to 63 devices can be added to the
port at any time without rebooting your computer (via hub).

4. USB supplies power to some devices - eliminating the need for power cords or batteries.

xii What is USB?

Prestige 630 ADSL USB Modem

Device Drivers

Two types of device drivers are provided for your new modem: WAN (Wide Area Network) and LAN (Local
Area Network). The proper choice of driver depends on the combination of operating system and protocol.

1. LAN (RFC 1483) Driver - this driver makes the modem appear as a LAN or Ethernet device.

Connection establishment is automatic. This driver supports RFC 1483 with PVC connections.

2. WAN (RFC 2364) Driver - this driver causes the modem to resemble a dial-up modem. Call

establishment takes place through Dial-Up Networking. This driver supports RFC 2364 with PVC
(Permanent V irtual Circ uit) connections.

Cable

Asymmetrical Digital Subscriber Line is an asymmetrical technology, meaning that the
downstream data rate is much higher than the upstream data rate. ADSL operates in a
frequency range that is above the frequency range of voice services, so the two systems can
operate over the same cable.

Address Resolution Protocol is a protocol for mapping an Internet Protocol address (IP
address) to a physical machine address that is recognized in the local network.

A high-speed line or series of connections that forms a major pathway within a network.
This is the capacity on a link usually measured in bits-per-second (bps).
(Binary Digit) -- A single digit number in base-2, in other words, either a 1 or a zero. The

smallest unit of computerized data.
A set of bits that represent a single character. There are 8 bits in a Byte.
Call Detail Record. This is a name used by telephone companies for call related information.
Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol is an alternative protocol that avoids sending

passwords over the wire by using a challenge/response technique.
A software program that is used to contact and obtain data from a Server software program on

another computer. Each Client program is designed to work with one or more specific kinds of
Server programs, and each Server requires a specific kind of Client. A Web Browser is a
specific kind of Client.

A cable that wires a pin to its opposite pin, for example, RX+ is wired to TX+. This cable
connects two similar devices, for example, two data terminal equipment (DTE) or data
communications equipment (DCE) devices.

CSU/DSU

DCE

Channel Service Unit/Data Service Unit. CSUs (channel service units) and DSUs (data service
units) are actually two separate devices, but they are used in conjunction and often combined
into the same box. The devices are part of the hardware you need to connect computer
equipment to digital transmission lines). The Channel Service Unit device connects with the
digital communication line and provides a termination for the digital signal. The Data Service
Unit device, sometimes called a digital service unit, is the hardware component you need to
transmit digital data over the hardware channel. The device converts signals from bridges,
routers, and multiplexors into the bipolar digital signals used by the digital lines. Multiplexors
mix voice signals and data on the same line.

Data Communications Equipment is typically a modem or other type of communication device.

Glossary A

Prestige 630 ADSL USB Modem

The DCE sits between the DTE (data terminal equipment) and a transmission circuit such as a
phone line.

DHCP

DNS

Domain
Name

DRAM

Driver

DSL

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol automatically assigns IP addresses to clients when they
log on. DHCP centralizes IP address management on central computers that run the DHCP
server program. DHCP leases addresses for a period of time, which means that addresses are
made available to assign to other systems.

Domain Name System links names to IP addresses. When you access Web sites on the
Internet, you can type the IP address of the site or the DNS name. When you type a domain
name in a Web browser, a query is sent to the primary DNS server defined in your Web
browser’s configuration dialog box. The DNS server converts the name you specified to an IP
address and returns this address to your system. From then on, the IP address is used in all
subsequent communicati ons .

The unique name that identifies an Internet site. Domain Names always have 2 or more parts,
separated by dots. The part on the left is the most specific, and the part on the right is the
most general.

Dynamic RAM that stores information in capacitors that must be refreshed periodically.

A driver is a program that interacts with a particular device or special kind of software. The
driver contains special knowledge of the device or a special software interface that programs
using the driver do not.

Digital Subscriber Line technologies enhances the data capacity of the existing twisted-pair
wire that runs between the local telephone company switching offices and most homes and
offices. There are actually seven types of DSL service, ranging in speeds from 16 Kbits/sec to
52 Mbits/sec. The services are either symmetrical (traffic flows at the same speed in both
directions), or asymmetrical (the downstream capacity is higher than the upstream capacity).
DSL connections are point-to-point dedicated circuits, meaning that they are always
connected. There is no dial-up. There is also no switching, which means that the line is a
direct connection into the carrier’s frame relay, ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode), or
Internet-connect system.

DSLAM

DTE

EMI

Ethernet

A Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer (DSLAM) is a network device, usually at a
telephone company central office, that receives signals from multiple customer Digital
Subscriber Line connections and puts the signals on a high-speed backbone line using
multiplexing techniques. Depending on the product, DSLAM multiplexers connect DSL lines
with some combination of asynchronous transfer mode ATM, frame relay, or IP networks.

Originally, the DTE (Data Terminal Equipment) was a dumb terminal or printer, but today it is
a computer, or a bridge or router that interconnects local area networks.

ElectroMagnetic Interference. The interference by electromagnetic signals that can cause
reduced data integrity and increased error rates on transmission channels.

A very common method of networking computers in a LAN. There are a number of adaptations

B Glossary

Prestige 630 ADSL USB Modem

to the IEEE 802.3 Ethernet standard, including adaptations with data rates of 10 Mbits/sec and
100 Mbits/sec over coaxial cable, twisted-pair cable, and fiber-optic cable. The latest version
of Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, has a data rate of 1 Gbit/sec.

The FCC (Federal Communications Commission) is in charge of allocating the
electromagnetic spectrum and thus the bandwidth of various communication systems.

The nonvolatile storage that can be electrically erased and reprogrammed so that data can be
stored, booted, and rewritten as necessary.

A gateway is a computer system or other device that acts as a translator between two systems
that do not use the same communication protocols, data formatting structures, languages,
and/or architecture.

Any computer on a network that is a repository for services available to other computers on
the network. It is quite common to have one host machine provide several services, such as
WWW and USENET.

Internet Assigned Number Authority acts as the clearinghouse to assign and coordinate the
use of numerous Internet protocol parameters such as Internet addresses, domain names,
protocol numbers, and more. The IANA Web site is at http://www.isi.edu/iana.

Internet Control Message Protocol is a message control and error-reporting protocol between
a host server and a gateway to the Internet. ICMP uses Internet Protocol (IP) datagrams, but
the messages are processed by the TCP/IP software and are not directly apparent to the
application user.

(Lower case i) Any time you connect 2 or more networks together, you have an internet.
(Upper case I) The vast collection of inter-connected networks that all use the TCP/IP

protocols and that evolved from the ARPANET of the late 60’s and early 70’s.

Intranet

IP

IPCP (PPP)
IPX

ISP

A private network inside a company or organization that uses the same kinds of software that
you would find on the public Internet, but that is only for internal use.

Internet Protocol. The IP (currently IP version 4, or IPv4), is the underlying protocol for routing
packets on the Internet and other TCP/IP-based networks.

IP Control Protocol allows changes to IP parameters such as the IP address.
Internetwork Packet eXchange The native NetWare internetworking protocol is IPX

(Internetwork Packet Exchange). Like IP (Internet Protocol), IPX is an internetworking protocol
that provides datagram services.

Internet Service Providers provide connectio ns into the Inter net for home users and
businesses. There are local, regional, national, and global ISPs. You can think of local ISPs as

PAP

Local Area Network is a shared communication system to which many computers are
attached. A LAN, as its name implies, is limited to a local area. This has to do more with the
electrical characteristics of the medium than the fact that many early LANs were designed for
departments, although the latter accurately describes a LAN as well. LANs have different
topologies, the most common being the linear bus and the star configuration.

On a local area network (LAN) or other network, the MAC (Media Access Control) address is
your computer's unique hardware number. (On an Ethernet LAN, it's the same as your
Ethernet address.) The MAC layer frames data for transmission over the network, then passes
the frame to the physical layer interface where it is transmitted as a stream of bits.

The modulation type selected dictates what ADSL mode the Prestige will operate under.
Choose from T1.413, G.DMT, G.Lite or Multimode. Multimode Modulation supports
T1.413 or G.DMT protocol.

Is a protocol that supports the T1.413 standard (and G.DMT in certain operating systems).
Network Address Translation is the translation of an Internet Protocol address used within one

network to a different IP address known within another network.
Any time you connect 2 or more computers together so that they can share resources, you

have a computer network. Connect 2 or more networks together and you have an internet.
Network Interface Card. A board that provides network communication capabilities to and from

a computer system. Also called an adapter.
Any single computer connected to a network.
Password Authentication Protocol. PAP is a security protocol that requires users to enter a

password before accessing a secure system. The user’s name and password are sent over
the wire to a server, where they are compared with a database of user account names and
passwords. This technique is vulnerable to wiretapping (eavesdropping) because the
password can be captured and used by someone to log onto the system.

Port

POTS

PPP

An Internet port refers to a number that is part of a URL, appearing after a colon (:) right after
the domain name. Every service on an Internet server listens on a particular port number on
that server. Most services have standard port numbers, e.g. Web servers normally listen on
port 80.

Plain Old Telephone Service is the analog telephone service that runs over copper twisted-pair
wires and is based on the original Bell telephone system. Twisted-pair wires connect homes
and businesses to a neighborhood central office. This is called the local loop. The central
office is connected to other central offices and long-distance facilities.

Point to Point Protocol. PPP encapsulates and transmits IP (Internet Protocol) datagrams
over serial point-to-point links. PPP works with other protocols such as IPX (Internetwork

D Glossary

Prestige 630 ADSL USB Modem

Packet Exchange). The protocol is defined in IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force) RFC
1661 through 1663. PPP provides router-to-router, host-to-router, and host-to-host
connections.

PSTN

PVC

RFC

RIP

SAP

Server

SNMP

Public Switched Telephone Network was put into place many years ago as a voice telephone
call-switching system. The system transmits voice calls as analog signals across copper
twisted cables from homes and businesses to neighborhood COs (central offices); this is often
called the local loop. The PSTN is a circuit-switched system, meaning that an end-to-end
private circuit is established between caller and callee.

Permanent Virtual Circuit. A PVC is a logical point-to-point circuit between customer sites.
PVCs are low-delay circuits because routing decisions do not need to be made along the way.
Permanent means that the circuit is preprogrammed by the carrier as a path through the
network. It does not need to be set up or torn down for each session.

An RFC (Request for Comments) is an Internet formal document or standard that is the result
of committee drafting and subsequent review by interested parties. Some RFCs are
informational in nature. Of those that are intended to become Internet standards, the final
version of the RFC becomes the standard and no further comments or changes are permitted.
Change can occur, however, through subsequent RFCs.

Routing Information Protocol is an interior or intra-domain routing protocol that uses the
distance-vector routing algorithms. RIP is used on the Internet and is common in the NetWare
environment as a method for exchanging routing information between routers.

In NetWare, the SAP (Service Advertising Protocol) broadcasts information about available
services on the network that other network devices can listen to. A server sends out SAP
messages every 60 seconds. A server also sends out SAP messages to inform other devices
that it is closing down. Workstations use SAP to find services they need on the network.

A computer, or a software package, that provides a specific kind of service to client software
running on other computers.

System Network Management Protocol is a popular management protocol defined by the
Internet community for TCP/IP networks. It is a communication protocol for collecting
information from devices on the network.

STP

Straight
Through
Ethernet
Cable

SUA

Twisted-pair cable consists of copper-core wires surrounded by an insulator. Two wires are
twisted together to form a pair, and the pair form a balanced circuit. The twisting prevents
interference problems. STP (shielded twisted-pair) provides protection against external
crosstalk.

A cable that wires a pin to its equivalent pin. This cable connects two dissimilar devices, for
example, a data terminal equipment (DTE) and a data communications equipment (DCE)
device. A straight through Ethernet cable is the most common cable used.

Single User Account. The Prestige's SUA (Single User Account) feature allows multiple user

USB

Transmission Control Protocol handles flow control and packet recovery and IP providing
basic addressing and packet-forwarding serv ic es.

Telnet is the login and terminal emulation protocol common on the Internet and in UNIX
environments. It operates over TCP/IP networks. Its primary function is to allow users to log
into remote host systems.

A device that allows you to send commands to a computer somewhere else. At a minimum,
this usually means a keyboard and a display screen and so me si mple circuitry.

Software that pretends to be (emulates) a physical terminal and allows you to type commands
to a computer somewhere else.

Trivial File Transfer Protocol is an Internet file transfer protocol similar to FTP (File Transfer
Protocol), but it is scaled back in functionality so that it requires fewer resources to run. TFTP
uses the UDP (User Datagram Protocol) rather than TCP (Transmission Control Protocol).

User Datagram Protocol. UDP is a connectionless transport service that dispenses with the
reliability services provided by TCP. UDP gives applications a direct interface with IP and the
ability to address a particular application process running on a host via a port number without
setting up a connection session.

Uniform Resource Locator. URL is an object on the Internet or an intranet that resides on a
host system. Objects include directories and an assortment of file types, including text files,
graphics, video, and audio. A URL is the address of an object that is normally typed in the
Address field of a Web browser. The URL is basically a pointer to the location of an object.

Universal Serial Bus is an external bus interface that supports up to 12 Mbps. USB features
Plug and Play operability that auto-detects new devices (hardware). USB eliminates many of
the problems associated with (physically) opening your computer to install adapter cards,
change dip switches and configure IRQs (Interrupt Requests). With USB, up to 63 devices
can be added to the port at any time without rebooting your computer (via hub).

VCI

VPI
WAN

WWW

Virtual Channel Identifier. Identifies virtual channels between users or between users and
networks.

Virtual Path Identifier. Identifies virtual paths between users or between users and networks.
Wide Area Networks link geographically dispersed offices in other cities or around the globe.

Just about any long-distance communication medium can serve as a WAN link, including
switched and permanent telephone circuits, terrestrial radio systems, and satellite systems.

World Wide Web. Frequently used (incorrectly) when referring to "The Internet", WWW has
two major meanings - First, loosely used: the whole constellation of resources that can be
accessed using Gopher, FTP, HTTP, Telnet, USENET, WAIS and some other tools. Second:
the universe of hypertext servers (HTTP servers).
