Testing an ADSL Line connection in Stand-alone Mode
English
Testing an ADSL Line connection in
Stand-alone Mode
MC2+ can be used to emulate an ADSL(2+) modem or
router and can also enable the connection of a PC to the
Internet.
When testing in Stand-alone Mode, MC2+ does not need
to be connected to a PC.
The following describes how to test a PPP/IP connection.
For more detailed results, see Displaying Detailed
Results on page EN-27.
-1- Switch on MC2+.
-2- Connect the RJ11 cable supplied to the ADSL Line
Connector on MC2+, to the Network socket.
The Line Voltage Detector LED (POTS ) or
(ISDN ) may light. See Line Voltage Detector on
page EN-5 for more information.
-3- The ADSL Status LED will flash during training
and remain steady when Showtime has been
achieved.
Note
Occasional flashing of the ADSL Status LED in Showtime
is normal.
-4- The PPP/IP LED lights when a PPP connection is
established and MC2+ has been assigned an IP
address from the network. This can take a few
minutes.
In Stand-alone mode MC2+ will attempt to establish all
of the saved Connections. It can establish multiple
Connections with different VCs. It cannot however,
establish more than one connection for each VC. If
multiple Connections share the same VC, then it will
establish the default Connection for that VC in
Stand-alone mode.
To set up the default Connection for Stand-alone mode
you need to set up the default connection on the PC
before testing. See Choosing the Default connection for
Stand-Alone Mode on page EN-27.
