A typical External
ADSL USB Modem
voice/data
application.
What’s more, you can
customize the modem’s VPI, VCI,
encapsulation, and modulation
settings.
The modem is fully software
upgradable so that new features
and updates may be added by
simply loading a new version of
the device driver onto your PC.
Device drivers provided.
With the External ADSL USB
Modem, you get WAN, LAN, and
ATM device drivers. All three
support the ATM protocol, but
the ATM driver also works with
ATM services available in recent
Windows operating systems.
(By using ATM framing, ADSL
modems can securely and
efficiently carry various types of
traffic—for example, data, voice,
and video—over the same
network.)
By using the WAN driver, the
modem can work like a dial-up
type of modem (that is, establish
calls via dial-up networking). The
driver supports RFC 2364 with PVC
connections, and RFC 1483 with
PVC connections along with Point
to Point Protocol over Ethernet
(PPPoE ). TCP/IP settings are
automatically set up during the
software installation process but
can be modified if necessary. You
can also easily change your IP
address, server addresses and/or
default gateway, too, through the
driver’s TCP/IP Settings window.
Use the WAN driver with
Windows 98, Windows 98 SE,
Windows 2000, and Windows Me.
If you want the modem to
appear as a LAN or Ethernet-type
device, then install the LAN driver.
The ATM driver works in
conjunction with ATM services
provided by Windows. Both RFC
1577 and RFC 2364 are supported.
To establish a PPP (RFC 2364)
connection, the ATM driver uses
dial-up networking to create a
permanent or switched virtual
circuit connection. This driver can
be used with Windows 98 SE,
Windows 2000, and Windows Me.
Each type of installation (LAN,
WAN, and ATM) involves its own
installation sequence guided by
the modem’s installation wizard.
And several different protocols are
used on top of ATM. The protocol
required in your configuration
depends on the equipment
deployed by your DSL service
provider.
