Information for Canadian Users

The Industry Canada label identifies certified equipment. This certification means that the equipment meets
certain telecommunications network protective operation and safety requirements. The Industry Canada
does not guarantee that the equipment will operate to a user's satisfaction.

Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the facilities of
the local telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed using an acceptable method
of connection. In some cases, the company's inside wiring associated with a single line individual service
may be extended by means of a certified connector assembly. The customer should be aware that
compliance with the above conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some situations.

Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian maintenance facility designated
by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions,
may give the telecommunications company cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment.

For their own protection, users should ensure that the electrical ground connections of the power utility,
telephone lines, and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This precaution
may be particularly important in rural areas.

Caution

Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact the appropriate electrical
inspection authority, or electrician, as appropriate.

Prestige 630-C Series ADSL USB Modem

About ADSL

ADSL Overview

Asynchronous Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) technology provides high-speed data access across regular
telephone or ISDN lines by making use of previously unused high-frequency bandwidth. ADSL is
asymmetric in the sense that it provides a higher downstream data rate transfer (up to 8Mbps), than in the
upstream transfer (up to 832 Kbps). 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 provides a private (unlike cable telephone and modem services where the line is shared),

dedicated and secure channel of communications between you and your service provider.

2. 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.

3. ADSL is "always on" (connected). This means that there is no time wasted dialing up the service several

times a day and waiting to be connected; ADSL is on standby, ready for use whenever you need it.

About ADSL xiii

Prestige 630-C Series ADSL USB Modem

About USB

USB

USB (Universal Serial Bus) is a data communications standard that allows your computer to recognize
(auto-detect) new devices. No technical expertise is required to install your device. 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. There is no need for numerous different types of ports and connectors on your computer. Modems,
printers, joysticks, keyboards, mice, audio devices, CD-ROMs, digital cameras and other devices can
all be connected through USB.

2. With USB, installing adapter cards, changing dip switches and configuring IRQs (Interrupt Requests)
does not require opening your computer.

3. USB has data transfer rates of up to 12 Mbps.

4. Multiple devices can be daisy-chained to a single port without restarting your computer.

5. USB can power some devices - eliminating the need for batteries or power adapters.

2.1 Hardware Overview

Have your system operating disk handy during the installation, in case a specific file can not be found on
your computer.

The back panel has two interfaces: a USB and an ADSL port as shown in the following figure.

2.1.2 Splitter and Microfilter

Use a splitter (optional) in order to plug a phone into the same ISDN or telephone line. See the following
figure.

Figure 2-3 Splitter

You may opt to buy a telephone microfilter to install between the wall jack and your telephone(s). A
microfilter acts as a low pass filter that screens out possible interference. See the following figure.

depending on the version of your operating system.

3.2 Internet Account Information

You should have an Internet account already set up and been given most of the following information.

REQUIRED INFORMATION: FILL IN THE BLANKS

RFC CLIP, Bridged IP over ATM (RFC1483), PPPoA or PPPoE.

RFC Mode (with Classical and Bridged IP over ATM only)
Bridged or Routed.

VPI:

The Virtual Path Identifier number identifies a bundle of virtual
channels.

VCI:
The Virtual Channel Identifier number identifies a logical connection
between end stations.

designed BER (bit error rate). The SNR Margin is set by the Central Office
DSLAM. If the SNR Margin is increased, bit error rate performance will improve,
but the data rate will decrease. Conversely, if the SNR Margin is decreased, bit
error rate performance will decrease, but the data rate will increase.

Line Attenuation Attenuation is the decrease in magnitude of the ADSL line signal between the

transmitter (Central Office DSLAM) and the receiver (the Prestige), measured in
dB. It is measured by calculating the difference in dB between the signal power
level received at the Prestige and the reference signal power level transmitted
from the Central Office DSLAM.

Errored Seconds This is the number of errors. Whenever a given second contains a CRC error,

that second will be declared an error second.

Loss of Signal This field displays the number of times the ADSL signal has been lost.

Loss of Frame This field displays the number of times an ADSL frame has been lost.

CRC Errors This is the total number of frames that have CRC errors.

Data Rate This is the ADSL data rate.

PPPoE LLC, and PPPoE None.

The Maximum Receive Unit (MRU) indicates the maximum size of the PPP
information field that this device can receive. The default value is 1492 and is
used in the beginning of the PPP negotiation. During negotiation, the peer will
accept this MRU and will not send packets with information fields larger than this
value.

(MTU), it will be fragmented before transmission. During PPP negotiation, the
peer of the PPP connection will indicate its MRU. The actual MTU of the PPP
connection will be set to either the MTU or the peer’s MRU (whichever is
smaller). The default is value 1492.

The Maximum Segment Size (MSS) is the largest size of data that TCP will send
in a single IP packet. When a connection is established between a LAN client
and a host on the WAN side, the LAN client and the WAN host will indicate their
MSS during the TCP connection handshake. The default value is 1432.

Virtual Circuit Topology

ATM is a connection-oriented technology, meaning that it sets up virtual circuits over which end systems
communicate. The terminology for virtual circuits is as follows:

• Virtual Channel Logical connections between ATM switches

• Virtual Path A bundle of virtual channels

• Virtual Circuit A series of virtual paths between circuit end points

Diagram 1 Virtual Circuit Topology

Think of a virtual path as a cable that contains a bundle of wires. The cable connects two points and wires
within the cable provide individual circuits between the two points. In an ATM cell header, a VPI (Virtual
Path Identifier) identifies a link formed by a virtual path; a VCI (Virtual Channel Identifier) identifies a
channel within a virtual path.

The VPI and VCI identify a virtual path, that is, termination points between ATM switches. A series of
virtual paths make up a virtual circuit.

Your service provider should supply you with VPI/VCI numbers.
