Verifying your Connection

The ADSL Modem USB automatically connects to your ADSL provider when the computer is started. This is a physical connection between your Modem and the Service Provider. To connect to your Internet provider or to your Corporate Network you will need to make a connection using either an application supplied by them or Microsoft Dial-up Networking. In order to make that connection you need to be sure that your modem is talking to the ADSL network. To verify this you should look at the ADSL LED on the modem.

If the ADSL LED is a steady light, the modem is connected to your DSL provider. If the LED is flashing slowly (about once per second), the modem cannot connect to your DSL provider. If the LED is flashing quickly, the modem is in the process of connecting to the internet.

If the connection is down, refer to the troubleshooting section of the on-line help.
