In factory setting, the default password for administrator is password, and that for user is also password. You can change the default password to ensure that someone cannot adjust your settings without your permission. Every time you change your password, please record the password and keep it at a safe place.

Please note that the minimum input for password is 8 alphanumeric characters long.

Since it is case sensitive, be sure that you remember whether a letter is in upper or lower case and make sure that your Caps Lock is off. Moreover, please do not use the sign “&” in the passwords.

4.4.8 System – Diagnostic Test

As soon as you enter the test program, all tests will run automatically to diagnose the connection status of the device.

20

Checking LAN Connection

Testing Ethernet LAN connection

This test passes if the Ethernet LAN interface is working properly.

Checking ADSL Connection

Testing ADSL Synchronization

This test checks your DSL modem to see if it can successfully negotiate and establish a

DSL connection with your service provider's central office equipments. The test returns

PASS if a DSL connection is established.

If this test returns FAIL, please try the test again a few minutes after this test is completed. Since your DSL modem need a couple of seconds to a few minutes to establish the DSL connection depending on your phone line quality. If this test returns

FAIL, make sure your phone line is connected to your DSL modem securely, and also check with your service provider to see if your service is activated.

If this test returns FAIL, all other tests will be skipped.

Checking Circuit 0 for Network Connection

Test ATM OAM Segment Loop Back

This test sends ATM OAM F5 Segment loop back request cells to the central office equipments through your DSL connection. This test will pass if response cell is received.

Since your service provider might not support this test, your DSL modem could still work even if this test fails.

21

BILLION BIPAC-7000 ADSL USB Modem

If this test fails consistently and your DSL modem seems not working, check to make sure the VPI and VCI are configured correctly.

This test returns FAIL if the DSL synchronization test failed.

Test ATM OAM End-to-End Loop Back

This test sends ATM OAM F5 End-to-End loop back request cells to the central office equipments through your DSL connection. This test returns PASS if response cell is received. Since your service provider might not support this test, your DSL modem could still work even if this test fails.

If this test return FAIL consistently and your DSL modem seems not working, check to make sure the VPI and VCI are configured correctly.

This test returns SKIPPED if the DSL synchronization test failed.

Test Ethernet connect to ATM

This test returns PASS if the ATM AAL5 module is loaded correctly in your DSL modem.

If this test returns FAIL, an internal error has occurred.

This test returns SKIPPED if the DSL synchronization does not return PASS.

Test PPPoE connection

This test returns PASS if your login name and password have passed authentication with your service provider.

If this test returns FAIL, run this test again a few minutes after this test is completed, especially if your PPP connection has just been improperly disconnected. If this test consistently fails, first make sure your login name and password are correct. Remember that login name and password are case sensitive.

This test returns SKIPPED if “PPPPOE connect to Ethernet” test does not return PASS and your DSL modem is configured as PPPOE encapsulation.

This test also returns SKIPPED if “Ethernet connect to AAL5” test does not return

PASS and your DSL modem is configured as PPPOA encapsulation.

Test PPP Layer connection

This test returns PASS if your DSL modem has been assigned a valid IP address by

22

your service provider through DHCP or your DSL modem is assigned a valid IP address statically.

If this test returns FAIL, run this test again a few minutes after this test is completed. If this test returns FAIL consistently and DHCP client is turned on in your DSL modem, check with your service provider. If this test returns FAIL consistently and your DSL modem is statically assigned an IP address, make sure the IP address is the correct one assigned by your service provider.

This test returns SKIPPED if “Ethernet connect to AAL5” test does not return PASS.

Test IP connect to PPP

This test returns PASS if your DSL modem has been assigned a valid IP address by your service provider through DHCP or your DSL modem is assigned a valid IP address statically.

If this test returns FAIL, run this test again a few minutes after this test is completed. If this test returns FAIL consistently and DHCP client is turned on in your DSL modem, check with your service provider. If this test returns FAIL consistently and your DSL modem is statically assigned an IP address, make sure the IP address is the correct one assigned by your service provider.

This test returns SKIPPED if “Ethernet connect to AAL5” test does not return PASS.

Test IP connect to Ethernet

This test returns PASS if the gateway can be reached through ping request. The gateway is assigned by your service provider, or obtained from your service provider by

PPP negotiation or DHCP negotiation.

If this test returns FAIL, run this test again a few minutes after this test is completed. If this test returns FAIL consistently and your DSL modem seems not working, check to make sure your statically assigned IP address is configured correctly or DHCP client is turned on with the current VC.

This test returns SKIPPED if "IP connect to PPP" or "IP connect to Ethernet" test does not return PASS.
