4 SpeedTouch™ Internet Connectivity
Introduction
This chapter provides information on how to configure your SpeedTouch™
according to your preferences and how to access the Internet.
Access methods
As soon as the SpeedTouch™ and your computers have been configured as
outlined in
, you are able to connect to the WAN or
Internet.
Depending on the configuration of the SpeedTouch™ you may have:
Direct access
As soon as the initial configuration has been done, continuous and immediate
access is available via the DSL line.
Dial-in access
Access must be explicitly established, e.g. by “dialing” into a Broadband
Remote Access Server (BRAS).
The applied connection protocol model depends on the service profile you selected
to configure the SpeedTouch™ and should correspond with the Service Provider’s
requirements.
Direct access
As mentioned, as soon as the initial configuration has been done, immediate and
uninterrupted WAN access is provided.
Dial-in access
The SpeedTouch™ supports both most popular connection methods: PPP over ATM
(PPPoA) and PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE).
The connection method depends on the service profile you selected to configure
the SpeedTouch™ and should correspond with the service Provider’s requirements.
Routed PPPoA: the SpeedTouch™ needs to be configured for the Routed
PPPoA Service.
Routed PPPoE: the SpeedTouch™ needs to be configured for the Routed
PPPoE Service.
Both Services are available via the SpeedTouch™ Quick Setup.
Using the
SpeedTouch™
PPP dial-in client
SpeedTouch™’s embedded PPP dial-in client allows you to establish an Internet
connection for all (or a selection of) computers residing on your local network,
using only one computer of the network to control the client.
If this computer runs:
MS Windows XP
you can use MS Windows XP’s Internet Gateway Device Control Client.
See
“4.1 Using the MS Windows XP Internet Gateway Device Control Agent”
to proceed.
Another Operating System
you can use the SpeedTouch™ web pages.
See
“4.2 Using the SpeedTouch™ Web Pages” on page 42
to proceed.
In case of direct access, the remote organization might ask for a user name
and password on an Internet welcome page.
