Modem Diagnostics
The Configuration Utility can be used to monitor the activity and performance of the Modem. The four status
windows are read-only with the exception of the General ADSL Information. Once you have set the VCI and
VPI values there should not be any need to change them. You can choose the interval in which the statistics are
refreshed from the pull-down menu on the bottom of the window.
Clicking on the ADSL Status tab provides information about the status of the ADSL link and the data. In this
window you can view the following information:
Link Status – current status of the ADSL link
Protocol – ADSL protocol used to provide the connection
Data Path – Fast or Interleave mode (depending on the DSLAM)
Upstream - Displays upstream data bit rate in Kbps
Downstream - Displays downstream data bit rate in Kbps
The lighted indicator indicates the connection status by its color.
Red light – not connected
Yellow/Black flashing light – connecting
Green light - connected
The General ADSL Information menu displays information on packets received and transmitted via the ADSL
line as well as the ADSL settings. This is where you can change the VCI and VPI values, as described in the
previous section.
