Re: ADSL router recommendation - VIGOR ADSL Settings...

[Wayne <wayne@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hiyall.

How many of you AUTO DETECTED your adsl modem settings?

Stuck a note this one. We have has several problems whereby the ADSL
kept dropping out and so losing internet connections. After a bit of
rummaging around (and a chat to tech support :) ) turns out that the
AutoDetect for the modem doesn't use the correct values that are used in
the UK.

What /should/ be used are as follows.
--------------------------------
DSL Modem Settings

Multi-PVC Channel: Channel 1
VPI: 0
VCI: 38
Encapsulating Type: VC MUX
Protocol: PPPoA
Modulation: G.DMT
--------------------------------

Apparently this is what ALL UK BT provided ADSL connections use (if its
wrong blame the tech guy!).  Its been working so far with no hiccups on
a test site.

Hope this helps :)
Wayne.
