Chapter 1 Overview

This manual is a comprehensive user’s guide for the CellPipe™ USB Series ADSL modems.

Currently, the product line consists of:

CellPipe™ 20A-USB, software version 1.11.

The contents of this guide include basic information about the unit, such as hardware

installation, software setup, and information on configuration of the three different drivers:

WAN, LAN, and ATM.

What is the CellPipe 20A-USB?

The CellPipe 20A-USB is an ADSL modem connected via the USB port on your computer.

ADSL modems employ ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) framing. ATM is a protocol that

divides packets into small fixed-sized cells for rapid transmission over high-speed networks.

The ATM protocol allows various types of traffic (e.g., data, voice, and video) to be securely

and efficiently carried over the same network. ATM is being widely deployed by

telecommunications carriers in their backbone networks. Two type of ATM connections are

possible, PVC (Permanent Virtual Circuit) and SVC (Switched Virtual Circuit).

CellPipe 20A-USB features

The CellPipe 20A-USB supports the following features:

• Compliance with Universal Serial Bus Specification Revision 1.1

• USB bus-powered; an external power supply is not required

• Three device drivers: Microsoft NDIS 4.0 WAN miniport, NDIS 4.0 LAN miniport, or

NDIS 5.0 ATM miniport

• Compatibility with all T1.413, G.DMT, and G.lite compliant central office (CO) DSLAM

equipment, as well as the vast majority of deployed CAP RADSL CO equipment

• Upgradeable software

• Support for up to sixteen simultaneous ATM virtual connections

• Microsoft Windows control panel monitoring program for adapter configuration and

connection-status verification

• RJ-11 connector for a telephone line

Chapter 1. Overview

2 CellPipe USB Series User’s Guide

• ADSL downstream data rate of up to 8Mbps

• ADSL upstream data rate of up to 1024Kbps

• Support for third-party PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) clients

CellPipe 20A-USB protocols

The protocol required in the configuration of the CellPipe 20A-USB depends on the

equipment deployed by the DSL service provider. There are several possibilities:

1. Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) over ATM (RFC 2364) – PPP provides session setup,

user authentication (login), and encapsulation for upper-layer protocols, such as IP

(Internet Protocol). The use of PPP enables the modem to function as a dialup

modem. PPP is supported by either the WAN driver or the ATM driver.

2. Bridged/Routed Ethernet/IP over ATM (RFC 1483) – This protocol enables the

modem to function as a LAN device.

3.

RFC 1577 – this is another LAN-like protocol for IP address and ATM address

mapping.

4.

Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) over Ethernet (RFC 2516) – This protocol allows the

modem to function as a LAN device and permits multiple computer users on an

Ethernet to share a common DSL connection to the Internet.

CellPipe 20A-USB device drivers

The CellPipe 20A-USB provides three types of device drivers: WAN, LAN, and ATM. All

three drivers support ATM protocol. In addition, the ATM driver is compatible with ATM

services available in recent Windows operating systems. The proper choice of driver

depends on the combination of Windows operating system and protocol.

1.

WAN driver – this driver enables the modem to function as a dial-up modem. Calls

are established via the Dial-Up Networking window. This driver supports RFC 2364,

and RFC 2516 with PVC connections and is compatible with Windows 98, Windows

98 SE, Windows 2000, Windows Me, and Windows xp.

Caution: CellPipe 20A-USB device drivers are not compatible with Windows NT

operating systems. Do not load on systems running Windows NT.

2. LAN driver – this driver enables the modem to function as a LAN or Ethernet device.

Connection establishment is automatic. This driver supports RFC 1577 and

RFC 1483 with PVC connections. It is compatible with Windows 98, Windows 98 SE,

Windows 2000, Windows Me, and Windows xp.

3. ATM driver – this driver is compatible with ATM services provided by Windows and

supports RFC 2364. This ATM driver employs dial-up networking to create a PVC or

SVC connection for a PPP connection. This driver is compatible with

Windows 98 SE, Windows 2000, Windows Me, and Windows xp.

Chapter 3 CellPipe 20A-USB Software Setup

Prior to driver installation, you might have to contact your DSL service provider to obtain

pertinent information if you do not plan to use the default settings provided.

Default settings

In general, default values for driver type, ATM Virtual Path ID (VPI), ATM Virtual Circuit ID

(VCI), encapsulation type, and modulation type are provided by you DSL service provider.

• IP Address Settings – the software installation process allows the server to

dynamically assign IP address settings. If your application requires static setting of

specific address information, you will need to know the following:

IP Address

Subnet Mask (for Bridged Ethernet applications only)

Default Gateway (for Bridged Ethernet applications only)

• Name Server Information – the software installation process allows the server to

dynamically assign Name Server address settings. If your application requires static

setting of specific address information you will need to know the following:

Primary DNS Address

Secondary DNS Address

Primary WINS Address

Secondary WINS Address

• Type of Driver to be Installed – WAN, LAN, and ATM drivers are supported

Note: Required if not using default driver set by service provider.

• ATM Virtual Path ID (VPI)
