ADSL Status Report
Here is a picture of the ADSL Status Report:
The ADSL Line State tells you where your modem is in the
connection process. The three states are Training, Handshake,
and ShowTime. A line state of ShowTime shows that your
modem has established a physical connection to the DSLAM (DSL
Access Multiplexer – a device used in the process of connecting
your computers, and/or network to the Internet). Training is at
the beginning of the connection and Handshake is right after
Training.
The Downstream and Upstream values tell you the speed at
which information is being downloaded from the Internet
(Downstream) and uploaded to the Internet (Upstream).
